I understand your concern about unexpected charges on your AWS account. As a student using AWS for class assignments, it's important to be aware of potential costs. Here's what you can do:
-
First, make sure to delete all resources you've used to prevent further charges.
-
You can request a refund by contacting AWS Billing Support directly. To do this, you need to open a support case under "Account and Billing" in the AWS Support Center. This type of support is free of charge.
-
When creating the support case, provide detailed information about your situation. Explain that you're a student, used AWS for class assignments, and were unaware of the charges. Include any relevant information from your instructor about expected costs or free usage.
-
If possible, gather evidence of your student status and course requirements to support your case.
-
AWS Support will review your request and guide you through the refund process if applicable.
-
For future use, familiarize yourself with the AWS Free Tier and its limitations. Also, consider using the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate costs before using services.
-
If you no longer plan to use AWS, you may want to consider closing your account to prevent any future unexpected charges.
Remember, while AWS does offer a Free Tier for many services, some usage may still incur charges. It's always important to monitor your usage and understand the pricing for the services you're using.
