Check these billing boundaries
The Billing FAQ explains stopped instances and unattached static IP charges. The data-transfer FAQ gives the Ohio outbound rate and bundle-level allowance rules. The disk FAQ distinguishes the root disk from separately retained attached storage.
Our guide calculates when overage makes a larger bundle cheaper, when an orphan IP erases an IPv6 saving, and which resources remain chargeable after deleting an instance. Quantities are explicit scenarios; personal trial eligibility and future prices are not guaranteed.
