Azure is charging me even when I'm on free plan

I'm training myself with those technologies. I'm developing a Blazor server web app that I need to host. I'm using free-tier web hosting and a "free" database. But still, I see charges in my account. They are very few (cents a day) but I cannot support any fee since I don't have any income.

There are so many options here that I assumed I just selected something wrong

SQL database: Germany west central, Free, general usage, serverless, Gen5 2 virtual cores

Any idea where can I cut my losses?

    Hi,

    Not all the features and resources are free, please check the FAQ and listed services in the free tier - https://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/free/free-account-faq

    Also you can contact the billing team for this issue - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-portal/supportability/how-to-create-azure-support-request#go-to-help--support-from-the-global-header

    Hope this helps.
