It's not included in Apple One, but is included in Apple Music which is part of Apple One.
Dumb question but I must ask: by canceling the extra 2TB standalone plan, you didn't lose the data right?
I pulled the trigger on the premier. No complaints so far except the 3 free months of apple tv+. wonder if they'll do something with that. no biggie if not.
Nice. My full year of Apple Arcade got a refund for the entire year, which I started in June. Didn't expect that.
Anybody know what happens for people who have free Apple TV+ until February if you get an individual or family bundle? Do they charge full price or refund $5 for TV+?
Well I just signed up and got a free 1 month trial (nice one Apple) so haven't been charged again. My Music/ATV sub will merge into Apple One this time next month and won't be charged for the double subscriptions.
Just need to cancel the current iCloud storage and I'm good to go.

So I already have the 2 TB iCloud plan. I’d like to sub to the Family bundle, but that only includes 200GB iCloud storage. How do I upgrade the bundle to 2 TB? After subscribing to Family bundle it shows my current iCloud storage as 2.2TB total. Want to just bump the 200 GB to 2 TB, not add it to the 2 TB I already have.
Thanks, have gone for it although its not asked me to do anything else around IDs, so I might just chat with Apple anyway.
Yeah - it just says it'll move to 0 next time my renewal is up. So I still have 4TB and the system is glitchy right now so it still shows my 2TB will renew - but if I edit it, it shows a darker circle on the NONE.
To answer your question: I still got 4TB and will until 11/9 (when my renewal is up) and I assume it'll go to NONE and I'll just have 2TB (from the Premier).
Yet it went over your head. It’s included but only if Apple Music has it. Anything unique and not in Apple Music that u upload you need iTunes Match.
Problem. I had subs to family iCloud 2TB, family music, free AppleTV+, apple arcade, apple news. I switched to Apple One Premium.
1. All my service subscriptions correctly indicate they will end and be replaced with Apple One at the end of November. Thats fine.
2. The iCloud 2TB is the issue. Right now my family shares that with me. I have an apple ID account for media and purchases through iTunes, a separate Apple ID for myself (they are not the same, never have been), and an apple ID each for the other 3 members of my family. Everyone shares the current 2TB data pool. Right now settings shows that my $9.99 a month 2TB iCloud data package with renew on Nov 3rd and there is no indication it will be replaced by Apple One. Further when setting up Apple One it asked which family ID I wanted to associate the 2TB data package included in Apple One with... I could pick my media/store account, my personal account, or the personal account of any of my 3 family members. What does that mean? Is the 2TB of Apple One data NOT shared but everyone and all accounts? Is my separate $9.99 going to renew? I wonder what to do?
UPDATE!!! It seems my iCloud 2TB family plan was associated with my personal account and my Apple One associated with my media/store account. I was able to select the Apple One plan and CHANGE the iCloud 2TB association to my personal account and it then canceled my $9.99 family 2TB plan. Nothing was lost and all accounts continue to share the data. Had I missed this, and it would be very, very easy to... I would have been playing for Apple One PLUS $10 a month for 2TB of data. Check this if you have multiple accounts!

Now that's cool. I wonder if the refunds are only for the annual subscriptions.
I was paying $14.99 for AM $9.99 2 TB storage and $4.99 for AA so premier was a no brainer for me. As soon as I hit subscribe I got multiple emails from PayPal saying Apple sent me a refund. My AM didn’t renew until tomorrow so it worked perfect for me. It also automatically removed my 2tb storage plan.
Unless you have music not listed in Apple Music - then you still need iTunes Match at $24.99 a year. That will allow you a cloud based storage section w/in Apple Music to upload your 'unique' music to be available across your other devices
Thanks. Quite messy, but I guess I'll have to do the same. I am just terrorized of losing the data
That is not true. I have uploaded several albums not offered on Apple Music and they are in my cloud library. I do not pay for Match.
No brainer of a subscription going for the Premiere tier, given I was already paying over £30 for just Music family, News+ and 2TB iCliud for my household. (Was also planning on paying for TV+ when the trial ended
In February). Thought I’d get in before Music and News+ renewed on 5th November.
Checking my purchase history, I’ve been charged for Apple One already (fine) and the only just paid 2 days ago 2TB iCloud storage payment has been refunded.
Well played Apple. Guess I’m even deeper into the ecosystem/walled garden than ever 😊
