ShravanHow are you doing today?

Me:not so good. I just notice that there is a subscription on my itune acct been renew without my notice.

ShravanNeed not to worry, I will be happy to partner with you on getting this taken care of today.

Me:Since 03/sep, there is a playkids subscription been going on deducting 6.99 every month.

Me:I not using it, is there a way I can get my refund & cancel the subscription to it?

ShravanI’ll definitely look into the possibilities for issuing a refund for the purchase.

ShravanI have looked into your account and found that the subscription has been already cancelled and you have not ben charged since October.

Me:that is because my credit on my itune acct been used up. That why not able to deduct anymore.

ShravanIt seems that you were using the free trial of the subscription. Since the auto renewal feature of the subscription was not turned off, the subscription renewed automatically after the free trial and you were charged.

ShravanAlso, I have checked all the possibilities on my end to see if a refund could be made but at this instance there is no option to refund the purchase. To know more on why the refund could not be processed, you may read about our refund policy on the below page: http://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)

Not sure what the problem is. The subscription will remain in your account until it expires. It cannot be removed before that, because you have paid for it until then.

If there is no "Cancel" button in the subscription settings on the Apple TV, automatic renewal has already been cancelled as the support person wrote, and you will not be charged. If you don't believe it, you can also double check in the account settings in the iTUnes app on a computer. It should say "Expires <date>" rather than "Renews <date>" under the subcription settings.

The problem is the subscription expired on Oct due to credit on my itune acct is not enough. Just now I top up $10, immediately the renewer kick in. I am not able to remove the subscription although it expired on Oct.

No ways to remove it.
[doublepost=1481088283][/doublepost]

Just top up and the subscription kick in.

Just top up and the subscription kick in.

No it won't.

Your screenshot clearly shows the subscription has ended. If it had not:
1) The subscription window would show a renewal date.
2) It wouldn't say "Expired"
3) There would be a "Cancel" button.

What you are seeing is an invitation to renew.

When I cancelled Apple Music after the trial, I had a screen like yours for several months. I was never charged for anything (and I do have an account balance). Eventually (90 days?) it stopped showing me the subscription renewal window entirely.

The guy said it was cancelled ten times, and you're like no it isn't. I would've ended the chat too.
