What Happens If I Get an AWS Bill Without Payment Details?

Asked by CuriousCat99
I recently discovered that I had an AWS service running under my account for a month without my knowledge, and even though I've deleted it, I've received a bill. The account doesn't have any payment details linked to it. What are the possible consequences if I decide not to pay this bill?

How much is the bill? If itโ€™s something reasonable, contacting support is definitely the way to go!

I've also contacted support, and my bill turned out to be $137. They were pretty understanding about the mix-up.

Itโ€™s kind of like taking something from a store without paying. They might pursue the debt through collections if you don't settle the bill, so it's worth considering your options.

You should reach out to AWS support and explain your situation. If this is your first issue, they may remove the charges for you.
