Request to clear Apple Store account balance

To empty your balance add an external payment method (e.g., a card) to buy an item (not a subscription) for more than your balance. The difference owed will be billed to your card, leaving nothing in your account.

Another way is to ask Apple to remove and retain the balance. The people responding here are Apple product customers like yourself and cannot do this for you.
