Could I get a refund for my Apple Music subscription?

I Recently had to create a new Apple ID until my old account could be available by Apple. I had purchased a Apple Music subscription with my new Apple ID. Is there a way I can cancel or transfer that subscription to my old Apple account with out having to pay again.

iPhone SE, iOS 11.2.6

You must first cancel any subscription:


View, change, or cancel your subscriptions - https://support.apple.com/HT202039 - "Your membership or subscription might renew if you don't cancel your membership or subscription more than 24 hours before your renewal date." At this stage the renewal is considered a purchase. For a new subscription the sale is probably effective from when you first agree to subscribe. Canceling a subscription does not automatically start a refund since the existing subscription will continue until the end.


If you wish a refund: Apple's terms of purchase in the USA are, "All Transactions are final" (https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/us/terms.html), but some countries have different laws so check terms for your country at: http://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/. If sales are final then it is Apple's decision if they want to grant a refund. You can always ask, and people do get refunds on a case by case basis, but Apple can also say no. To request a refund:
