To facilitate your use of Cloud Service for etcd clusters, self-service return and refund are supported if you are in any way not satisfied with monthly subscription clusters after purchase. Each entity is entitled to an unconditional return of one etcd cluster within five days, and the valid amount paid will be refunded to your Tencent Cloud account. You can also proceed with a standard self-service return. After the fees for resources you have already used are deducted, the refund amount is returned to your Tencent Cloud account based on the proportion of cash and free credits used for the purchase. All these operations can be performed in the console.
