I get paid on April 1st my payment is due tomorrow. They won’t extend the date so I will be left without a phone during the virus for almost a week, I’m self isolated because I have symptoms of the virus I need my phone for emergencies. they are only helping people who use US roaming but seem to be helping no one else. My rent was forgiven for April, Shaw has given me 60 days to pay my bill everyone else is either forgiving payments or extending payment dates to make sure everyone stays connected during this except Public.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Thanks I do have charge of my life...I have the ability to make the payments but as I’ve said a few times now, my payment dates just changed which messed up my bills as my bills were all set to the 28th of every month not the 1st and now I get paid on the 1st of every month. I can afford my Apple payments it’s just an issue with the dates changing.

Pay off Apple, stop whatever it is you pay Apple for. Find an alternative and remove your payment method from your Apple account. Take charge of your life and buy Apple iTunes cards at Costco, if you really must use Apple, for 10% off and watch for the 20% off offers too.

I would suggest you pay double. Then pay every month and always be paid up one month ahead of. Tough times I know but be responsible, use common sense, and take charge of your needs and commitments.

@Alycatxo, send a private message to the moderators, and maybe explain and be kind in with your words. From what I have seen, they have in certain circumstances waive the monthly fee or whatever. Maybe, go down to the $15 plan or suggest that as an emergency. Getting the $35-50 plan isn't an emergency so, provide different options to the team.
You may get lucky and get a moderator who is sympathetic to your health issues. Good luck, Godspeed and stay safe.

You should also ask Apple to delay your requirement to pay then. They are much larger than Telus and should be doing something to help people as well.
