I use to have free PostgresSQLDB as part of Azure. Starting 16th of June, I am bring charged .60 cents/day for each of my production and test DB. Even with the DB being down, I see minor charges. Is there some change in policy?

    Hi,

    Are you referring to Azure Free account? If yes, under this offer you get Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible server Burstable B1MS SKU plus 32GB storage and 32GB backup free for 12 months. After 12 months you have to pay.

    Free services - scroll down and click See all free services

    https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/free-services

    Even if the server is Stopped, you will still be charged for storage and backup storage. Please see pricing page:

    https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/postgresql/flexible-server/

    Please let me know if you are still within 12 months or you are using different offer.

    Please click Accept Answer and upvote if the above was helpful.

    Thanks.
