Apple ICloud

What happens if you start paying for iCloud storage then all of a sudden can’t afford to pay it does anyone know if your data will be saved or deleted? Are you able to get back and get it later when you can afford it?

You have to log in, download the files you want / need and then delete them from iCloud. I did that before they started charging me (and so they never did charge). That is all you can do - Remove your data, OR, Pay for it.

So can you get your files or no?
Yes.  Log in and download the files you want to your computer.

Even if you can't pay the monthly subs subscription.
You have to download before the payments start (or pay the first additional month).  At some point, if you cancel the subscription, they will remove your data.  I would get it before this happens.

Sorry to be asking question but just making sure. What if I don't cancel but just can't pay right away will they cancel my account and delete it or give me time?
I think you pay by credit card and if you miss a payment and make it up, there is usually no big issue.

If you remove your data, you can keep a basic iCloud account for free. I do this.
