I signed-up on 2/Feb/2020 with the 60-days or $100 credit offer. However, my usage kept growing from $0 to $26 today (23/Feb/2020). I have a droplet that I am using for development and would like the actual billing start after the 60-day period. Is there any promo code that I should request for that needs to be applied? Kindly help.

Hey @vvaradhan,

In our public community, we aim to answer open questions about anything SysAdmin, DigitalOcean and beyond. However, we make every attempt to keep personal information safe and so don’t ever access personal account information here. This means we can’t provide help with any account or billing-related issues.

Please reach out to our amazing support team who will be more than happy to assist you with your account issue! :)
