Am I getting charged for things way after I download them?

I tried to download something FREE. It said to check my billing information. I did that and then it charged my credit card two dollars, why? Then when I downloaded another FREE app, it charged me again. I did not have that money on the card now I have a negative balance.

Could be this.

You should be able to cancel auto-renewing subscriptions via your computer's iTunes - there are instructions on this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098

How do you get charge for visual voicemail?

After reading a couple of post and being completely confused by them I tried an experiment. I turn airplane mode on and then proceed to check my voicemail from earlier.
The voicemail played without me connecting to AT$T. So this verifies that the actual voicemail is someone being pushed over to your phone. WHich explains why you can now play the voicemail in any order. (it's like playing songs like your ipod basically)
So then here's the question: DO we still get charged for listening to the message itself?
ON a traditional cell phone everytime you listen to a voicemail message you lose airtime according to how long you listen to that message. No with the iphone things are different. Voicemails are storage on the handset and not located at at&t.
Based on what i am reading there are two parts to the visual voicemail. 1.) the actual service that is "pushing" the voice messages to the iphone and 2.) listening to the messages
Since the message is already on the iphone there is no way for at&t track how many times or how long you've been listening to your voicemail.
So 2 things can happen. 1.) the visual voicemail plan actually covers the whole thing. Listening to messages on the phone and the service that does the pushing.
or 2.) as someone earlier posted, you still get charged for voicemail. It's charged before it's been pushed to your phone. So if X calls me and leaves me a 5 minute message, i will lose 5 minutes of airtime before before i even had a change to check the message.
NOw if number is true then that would suck.
Can someone verify if this is true

you don't get charged per message.
There's a flat rate fee for the visual voicemail service that is included in the $20/month iPhone data plan.
The information gets sent via the Edge network to your phone, where it is stored until you delete it.

To begin, what ADA-compliant options are available to work with a service representative? Good question, and one that I don't know the answer to. Does anything on this page help? Products & Services Overview | Verizon Wireless
1) I was charged for service following the cancellation of my service; this includes a period following cancellation during which no service was provided. Service is normally billed through the end of the billing cycle, whether service is provided or not. "Cancellations will become effective on the last day of that month’s billing cycle, and you are responsible for all charges incurred until then." After working with a representative in person, I was told that my final bill would be adjusted to reflect the legally billable amount. According to their legal docs, the "leagally billable amount" is through the end of the billing cycle. This was three weeks ago and I haven't received a response, and I haven't been able to find a way to pursue a resolution - What can I do to help move this process forward?
2) It appears I will be unable to pay my bill after this dispute has been reviewed. My phone number is no longer with Verizon. The online bill payment login requires a phone number - I have never been provided with any other account number. Unfortunately, Verizon appears to close access to online bill payment when the phone number is transferred, even to accounts with unpaid invoice amounts. How can I pay my bill online? You cannot pay online once the account is cancelled. You will be mailed a paper copy of the final bill, and you can mail a check, or possibly call in and pay over the phone. But online is no longer an option once the account is cancelled.

Why did I get charged for the gift card from the student deal with macbook pro?

Why did I get charged for the $100 gift card student deal that came with the macbook pro? I was told that it would be taken credited off my credit card however; that has not happened. Am I missing something? Have other people been charged for this as well?

The same thing happened to me but it made sense.
I ordered a MBPR on Jun 12 for $2879 which qualified for the free student gift card. The gift card was available to ship (delivers June 20 - June 21) but the MBPR wasn't available until a month later (deliverys July 3 - July 10). Instead of holding the gift card until the MBPR was ready, Apple charged me $100 for the card then shipped it to me.
About a month later when the MBPR was ready, Apple charged me $2779 then shipped it. In the end, I was charged the correct amount $2779 + $100 = $2879.
Why did Apple do this? I suspect that some people have cheated Apple by ordering a Mac to get the promotional gift card then canceled their order after the gift card was spent. Apple is trying to protect itself.
BTW, if you return the mac then you're expected to return the gift card. If you've spent any amount of the card then Apple will deduct this from your refund.

I am part of a family sharing setup. Can I have my own payment method so the organizer does not get charged for my purchases?

I am part of a family sharing setup. Can I have my own payment method so the organizer does not get charged for my purchases? If so, how do I set this up?

Yes. Just redeem gift cards so that your own account always has a sufficient credit balance. Here is how it works:
Family purchases and payments
After you set up your family, any time a family member initiates a new purchase it will be billed directly to your account unless that family member has gift or store credit. First, their store credit will be used to pay the partial or total bill. The remainder will bill to the family organizer's card.

I was charged for overage minutes after I was told upgrading to a next higher plan would not.

During the month of January, I was about to go over on my minutes and I called Customer Service. A representative told me my best option was to upgrade to the next higher plan and pay the difference rather than getting charged for the overage minutes. I did exactly that.
On my February bill, I was charged the overage minutes. While on vacation, I called Verizon again and a representative told me I was right in what I was told by the other representative. She filed a request to have the charges removed, and it was later denied. I pleaded my case again and how the first representative told me to do exactly that. Once again, denied. I had to settle for a lousy 25% off the charges after talking them up from 10%.
I feel cheated and scammed after I was told what to do and later comes back and bites me. HELP!

I had the 1400 minute plan and upgraded to the 2000 minute plan. The bill clearly shows the 1400 min plan being taken off and charged 2000min plan from the beginning of the billing period.

How do I keep getting charged for free apps

Hi I keep getting charged for downloading free game apps for my son. Why is this
I've been charged about £33.00 now for all different games that are ment to be free

It sounds like your son made in app purchases. These are very common with free games.
The games themselves are free, but the app developers offer in app purchases in order to add enhancements or add levels, and things like that. Stay away from those "free" games or read the app description carefully. The prices for in app purchases are listed on the left side of the app description page under the app icon.
You can turn off in app purchases in Settings>General>Restrictions. Or you can instruct your son to not make any purchases without your knowledge. In all fairness to your son .. Since I have no idea how old he is .... He may not even realize that he did make purchases .... Except for the fact that you have to enter your Apple ID password in order to make those purchases.

This is not true. Content can and is removed from the iTunes Store by copyright holders, for various reasons, at any time. When this happens the purchased items are no longer available in the purchase history. This is why it is a good idea to always download all purchases and back them up locally.

you are entitled to a refund for that purchase.
This certainly is not true.

I keep getting charged for free games

I am always trying to get charged for free games??

Are you asking this because your Apple ID password is requested before downloading the free game?
Downloading any app requires the password. Also required is a payment method filed with Apple. For free apps, games included, you will not be charged.

What do i get charged for?!

just got a nokia n95 and i am unsure of what i am being charged for when using the mapping system. do i get charged for planning a route, finding places like the restaurants or local hotels etc. i have searched everywhere and found lots of different answers!
help would be much appreciated!!
xx

I am assuming you are refering to charges for using Nokia Maps.
Firstly there is no charge to use nokia maps to locate you position and to download any maps you want. So all map updates are also free.
You will however have to pay for navigation if you wish to get turn by turn instructions. There are various rates for navigation. You can buy a single country or regions (eg. western Europe) for different durations such as a week, a month, a year etc. There used to be a 3-year license but I am not sure if this is still available.
Typical costs depending on country/region for a 1 week license is around €7.99, 1 month €8.99, 1 year €79.99 and 3 years €89.99. I got the 3 year license for Western Europe and everytime I go away on holidays I might get the 1 week or 1 month license for the region I am visiting.

There could also be associated network charges if you choose to go online and use AGPS when navigating. Network charges can be avoided by pre-loading your maps to your phone using the Map Loader programme and turning AGPS off.
