Pay-as-You-Go TencentDB Instance
Note:
After you stop using pay-as-you-go resources, terminate them as soon as possible to avoid further fee incursion.
Since your actual resource consumption changes constantly, some slight discrepancies may exist for your stated balance.
Alerts
Pay-as-you-go resources are billed on the hour. When your account balance becomes negative, the system will send an alert to your Tencent Cloud account creator, global resource collaborators, and financial collaborators via email, SMS, and other methods which are configured in message subscription in the Message Center. Arrears policy
1. From the moment your account balance becomes negative:
You can continue to use your TencentDB instance for 24 hours from the moment your account balance becomes negative. We will continue to bill you for this period.
When your account has been in arrears for 24 hours, your TencentDB instance will be automatically isolated, and billing will stop.
2. After automatic isolation:
Within 3 days after automatic isolation, if your account is not topped up to a positive balance, you will not be able to remove your TencentDB instance from isolation; if your balance is positive, the billing continues, and you can remove your instance from isolation.
If the balance remains negative for 3 days after isolation, the TencentDB instance will be repossessed. All data will be erased and cannot be recovered. Tencent Cloud account creator, global resource collaborators, and financial collaborators will be notified via email, SMS, etc.
