Hi. I’m also new to vs and signed up for the basic plan to kick around / learn. If I buy the $5 plan, what are the circumstances where I will have to pay more than $5 at the end of the billing period?
@brent: Currently, none. Once we start billing for bandwidth and images, you will be billed for any extra bandwidth used, snapshots (if you have any), and backups (if they are enabled).
Our pricing actually goes to three decimal places hourly so for 512MB its: $0.015/hr <br> <br>Which equates to $10.80, but to make it easier once you exceed $10 for the month you are billed a flat $10. <br> <br>We always bill whichever is lower, either the hourly rate or the flat monthly rate.
