    I think they have not yet started to bill us for snapshot !!

    Search in forum, Digital Ocean representatives have said many times, that billing has not yet started and when they do, they would further release few more details about the same..

Currently it’s not possible to find out the size of a snapshot, but you don’t need to worry about that because as @hunky said we are not billing for snapshots yet.

Hi! I just wanted to provide a quick update on this to point out that for some time now, the size for your snapshot is shown on the images page in the control panel.

This is the compressed size of the snapshot, not the space allocated for the Droplet. So when snapshot storage billing begins on October 1, 2016, you are only charged for the amount of space you are actually using at $0.05 per gigabyte per month.
