How do I cancel pending purchases from the App Store on an iPhone 8

Im not us Resident, that’s awkward so as I understand? I paid for an app that costs 55€ for free? Hmm this is their email; 

You have purchased Carly for BMW Full-Version on 17 June 2019 and acknowledged that if you download or use this in-App Purchase within fourteen days of buying it, you will no longer be eligible to cancel this purchase.

Regards,

The App Store

i tried to cancel it and it didn’t work...

Well then you’re even more off topic. AT&T is not Apple, and it is in the US.

I don’t know what country you’re in or what the policies are there, but it sure sounds to me like you are out of luck.

Apple Support told me I must enter payment info to complete the purchase and then I MIGHT be able to get a refund (I know I won't be able to). I can't even upgrade free apps without completing the pending purchase first. Such a scam!  It's like a store forcing you to buy something just because you put in your shopping cart - you are not allowed to change your mind & put it back on the shelf. It is my kid's ipad so I deleted the Apple ID, made a new one & reinstalled his apps again.

 The Apple App Store is completely unrelated to any carrier. Purchases, cancellations, refunds are all handled through Apple and iTunes -  not any carrier -  not At&t, not Verizon, not t-mobile, etc, etc.  

 If you’re not happy with how Apple does business, complain to Apple.  

No, it is not a scam. Purchasing something from the App Store is not a “shopping cart.” It is a final and binding contract, and this is stated in the terms of service.

A better analogy would be that you bought something from a store and never paid for it. Now you are complaining about the fact that they won’t let you buy more items until you settle your debt.

formerlyknownas, you're right about it. It's too bad they don't have any reliable interconnections with carriers.
