Hi ,
Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.
Finding Subscription Creator and Creation Date - Microsoft Q&A
To determine when you created your Azure account and whether your 12-month free period has concluded, follow these steps:
Sign in to the Azure Portal:
Navigate to https://portal.azure.com and log in with your credentials.
Access Subscription Details:
In the left-hand menu, select "All services".
Search for and select "Subscriptions".
Click on the subscription associated with your free account.
View Subscription Properties:
Within the subscription overview, select "Properties" under the "Settings" section.
Here, you'll find the "Created Date", indicating when your subscription was initiated.
Check Free Services Expiration:
In the subscription details, look for the "Free services" section.
This section displays the expiration date of your 12-month free services.
If your 12-month free period has ended, any services you continue to use may incur charges. To avoid unexpected costs, consider the following:
Upgrade Your Subscription: Transition to a pay-as-you-go model to maintain uninterrupted access to Azure services.
Monitor Usage: Regularly review your resource consumption to stay within desired spending limits.
Set Up Billing Alerts: Configure alerts to notify you when your usage approaches predefined thresholds.
For more detailed guidance on managing your Azure free account and avoiding charges, refer to Microsoft's official documentation.
