Azure Synapse Paused but Costs rising $100 per day

Hi Everyone,
I recently create a dedicated SQL Pool to learn about Microsoft cloud ware house. The resource has been paused for two days but is still registering new costs. It is the smallest size 100 dwu. I have not done anyh heavy processing either, just loaded one table.

I know there would be an hourly charge when the resource is enabled, but why are costs being generated when its paused?

The cost over three days is now over $200 and i cannot see any reason for it. Any ideas what might be happening?

Thanks for your help
Mike
