EC2 Global View will show currently running instances. So if you provisioned an EC2 in N Virginia last week (for instance) and then terminated it, it will no longer show up in EC2 Global View but you will still be billed for the period of time that it was running.
If you still have an EBS volume or snapshot in N Virginia then these will remain chargeable, even after terminating the instance. Verify these here https://us-east-1.console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/home?region=us-east-1#Volumes: and here https://us-east-1.console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/home?region=us-east-1#Snapshots:
If you feel you have been billed for something unfairly, your best course of action is to log a billing support case https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awsaccountbilling/latest/aboutv2/billing-get-answers.html#billing-support

Thank you for providing the links, I checked both EBS volumes and snapshots in the region - there are none. I noticed on the ec2 dashboard page there is a side panel that shows EC2 Free Tier info, it says "2 EC2 free tier offers in use". Last night I deleted the one ec2 instance that I created on us-east-2 Ohio. That dashboard has remained unchanged showing 2 EC2 free tier offers in use. I will log a billing support case, but I'm hoping the bug on my account can be fixed.
