I disputed the charge every month for about three months. Turns out you need an apple device to reset your apple password or wait weeks for an arbitrary email to verify your account. I don't own a single apple device, but my LG TV had Apple+.

How the fuck can they require you to have an apple device to reset the password?!?

My favorite is when they send a 2fa prompt to your phone when you’re trying to use find my iPhone

Actually find my is specifically excluded from the 2fa requirement. There may be a prompt but you can proceed to the find my iPhone screen without the code.

Do you? I don't own any apple device but I was able to reset the password on my very old account to use apple tv+ on my LG TV

[-] Pistcow@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

Yarp. My tv reset and I couldn't remember the password then they required I reset my password on an Apple device.

You can borrow my iPhone for it. I don't use it.
