Note that iCloud storage and device storage are not the same thing. You cannot purchase more device storage for an iPhone. Whatever it had when it rolled off the assembly line at the factory is what it will have forever.


Some things cannot be stored in iCloud – like the operating system (iOS), and apps. Other data may be stored both in device storage and in iCloud, In iCloud, for synchronization or backup purposes, and on your device, so that your phone can access it (including when your phone is offline).


What's the difference between iCloud storage and device storage on your iPhone or iPad? - Apple Support


If you are using iCloud Photos, you can turn on "Optimize iPhone Storage" on your phone. This gives it permission to store lower-quality, space-saving copies of your photos. Note that this is not an archival service – if you delete photos from your phone, you will be deleting them from iCloud and synchronized devices as well. You must permit the phone to decide when to substitute space-saving copies for full-size ones and vice versa.

What does it say in Settings ➜ Account ➜ iCloud is your iCloud storage space exactly?


The 2TB of iCloud are RM44.90, so not sure what that 36.92 was for unless you may have had balance on your Apple account it used before it used the CelcomDigi billing option.. Are you sure it was for iCloud+?






So, you don't know what you were chargewd for then?


Why do you assume it was for icloud+?


If it wasn't then you would not have received any amount of iCloud storage.


Log in to https://reportaproblem.apple.com and see if you can identfy the 36.92 charge in your list of purchases there.

On your Mac go to System Settings, hit your name then hit "iCloud" and it should show you how much iCloud storage you have. How much does it show?


Note that iCloud is not really additional storage for your Mac. iCloud is a synch service.

I also don’t know what is 36.92..bcs after i purchased the money already deducted
