Billed eventhough I am supposed to be free tier.

0

I was billed for using the database service, even though I created my account a couple of weeks ago. Is there something I dont understand about the free tier?

  • Could you please provide more information about which database service you were billed for and what was your configuration?

Hello.

The AWS one-year free tier covers the AWS services described in the following documents.
Possible causes of billing in this context include the use of instance types that are not eligible for the free tier or the accidental launch of multiple instances.
If you are using RDS, make sure you are not in a multi-AZ configuration and that you are using db.t2.micro, db.t3.micro, and db.t4g.micro instance types.
