Unexpected charge

-1

Hi, I am being charged by AWS, despite using Free Tier. The said service is " Amazon Virtual Private Cloud" which I have no idea what it is. I just created one Elastic Beanstalk and one PostgreSQL, which both I would expect to be free. Is this some bug in AWS billing?

Hello.

It's impossible to know for sure without looking at the details of your bill, but it's possible that you're being charged for a public IPv4 address.
AWS started charging for public IPv4 addresses from February 2024.
Please check whether you have a public IPv4 address in your account using the method described in the document below.

  • It does not seem the case. I did not setup any pubic IPv4 and the Address Manager says "No IPAM found in us-east-1." In the article is also written that "The AWS Free Tier for EC2 will include 750 hours of public IPv4 address usage per month for the first 12 months, "

  • Please share specific details from the invoice screen. You can view your invoice by following the steps in the document below. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awsaccountbilling/latest/aboutv2/getting-viewing-bill.html a

    There are some charges for VPC. I cannot determine which charges are being incurred until we see the breakdown. https://aws.amazon.com/vpc/pricing/?nc1=h_ls

  • You can look at Cost Explorer to see the breakdown. Select UsageType under GroupBy -> Dimension and VPC under Filter -> Service.
