I was charged for my free 3-month trial

Hi Apple Community!


I was a bit surprised when I discovered that I was charged about an amount equal to 3$ for my trial period of Apple Music Subscription (transaction description says ITUNES.COM/BILL).

Is there any rule that ceratin ways of payments require to be charged anyway? I am using a usual ATM card that has an option to be used to pay on the internet.

It is a temporary authorization hold. Whenever you update your billing information or purchase any thing from iTunes Store. iTunes will place a authorization hold for a value of 1$ to check weather the card has sufficient balance to make the purchase. These authorization holds will disappear once your purchase gets completed.


Please refer the below article regards to authorization holds which may help you !!!

To whom it may concern. When I signed up for the Apple Music Membership it was supposed to be a free trial for three months.
After I signed up I promptly cancelled it so I wouldn't forget and get changed.
Now, I am looking at this receipt for 10.59 and my bank account is overdrawn.
Any help regarding this matter would be helpful and appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
