Hi Fakhri, do you stop your instance after those 4 daily hours of usage? If not, you'll be invoiced on a permanent use basis. Hope it helps Didier
APS1-ElasticIP:IdleAddress do you have an elastic ip address assigned to that instance? If so, when you turn it off, the EIP will still be charged as an idle ip address.
Hi Fakhri,
That's is clearly showing after 4hrs usage when you stop EC2, still EIP is incurring costs as EIP is free only when it's attached with running instance. If you stop an instance without disassociating EIP, then you'll get billed immediately. For better understanding, I would suggest to check pricing calculator where you can take a look how EIP can increase cost for stopped instances.
