Azure Subscriotion

Question

My Azure subscription is deactivated due to the end of free after 30 days!, and I received and email that I have the option to upgrade to Py As You Go. My question is :

1- It is mentioned in Azure site: Whether you upgraded from an Azure free account offer or you signed up for pay as you go directly, you'll have access to monthly free amounts of popular services for 12 months from the date you created your Azure account. At the end of the 12-month period, your account will be billed at the standard pay-as-you-go rates. You'll also have access to monthly free amounts of services that remain free for as long as you have an Azure account.

So is it 30 days or 12 months? And if it is 30 dyas, and I choose pay-as-you-go, will my credit be transferred over?

Thank you

Answer 1

When you sign up for an Azure free account, you're given $200 in credits that are valid for the first 30 days. Once the 30-day period ends, any remaining credits will expire unless you upgrade to a Pay-As-You-Go. So, No your credit will not transfer as it has correctly expired.

The 12 month period refers to some specific services that have free usage limits. These services will be billed at standard rates if you exceed the free limits.

For list of these see: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/free-services

Thank you! So as an example if I used $30 of my credit within 30 days periond and if I upgrade to Pay-As-You-Go, I still have $170?
