Surprise charge of $564 after months of $0 usage
Hello,
I am currently panicking because I was hit with a very random charge of 564USD after months of 0USD usage:
| Service | EC2-Other($) | Total costs($) | EC2-Other(GB-Month) | Total usage(GB-Month) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Service total | 0.65885612 | 0.65885612 | 8.2357010789 | 8.2357010789 |
| 2026-01-01 | 0.6400000344 | 0.6400000344 | 8.0000000208 | 8.0000000208 |
| 2026-02-01 | 0.0188560856 | 0.0188560856 | 0.2357010581 | 0.2357010581 |

| 2026-04-01 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 2026-05-01 | 0 | 0 | ||
| 2026-06-01 | 0 | 0 |
I have absolute no idea where the charge has come from (charged to my card), and it still has not showed up yet in bills. I opened up multiple cases with still no response for 3 days now. I tried checking everywhere as to what could be causing this and I have found absolutely nothing. I am dumbfounded with no idea.
Help would be appreciated,
