iPhone Current iCloud subscribers

I'm an iCloud subscriber. I added an extra 10 gigs of storage to handle all my photos a few months back, for $20. But now, $12 gets you 20 gigs. Now I'm wondering, what will happen when iOS 8 is released? Will Apple refund me $8 and put me on the new 20 gig plan? Will they create a new storage level for old accounts? What have other companies (like google) done when they increased their cloud storage capacities?

Apple are probably still working that out. I'd guess they'll grandfather your plan, they definitely won't refund anyone.

Grandfather you on a worse plan? That doesn't sound like what Apple will do...

You can cancel your iCloud subscription at any time and Apple will give you a prorated refund. I'm sure when the new plans are out that you'll have the option to get a prorated refund for your current plan and move to a new plan.

New pricing will most likely kick in with the release of iOS 8 in the fall.

This makes sense!
