-
Matthew Feinberg (@thewebbie) reported@infoscav @awscloud 28 Billion! AWS has acknowledged there is a problem with the billing console.
-
Koray Yersel (@korayyersel) reported@AWSSupport My balance went down to zero. Time to the delete aws account
-
Edward Donner (@edwarddonner) reported@BaconOverflow @awscloud I'm an experienced technologist. Yes a bug was likely. My fear was I'd made a terrible mistake or leaked credentials. AWS customers are on the hook for either. AWS has no hard caps. My initial alerts were high but not billions. For 10 mins I thought this just might be real.
-
deibeat (@deibeat_13) reported@AWSSupport I did the same exactly, and really panicked when I saw that, thought someone got access or something. Tried to contact billing support, removed s3 bucket, turned off a personal website using it, asked Claude for guidance until I finally found it was a global issue…
-
Daniël (@dvtoever) reported@marcelocantos @awscloud Totally agree. I my took hours for the stress to leave my body. I tought i was hacked and my services were abused. They didnt bother to take down the billing page temporarily with a warning or sent a follow up mail pointing out this bug.I am going to close down my account as well
-
M (@mdw864) reported@AWSSupport Either that or ask me to login, which I keep telling you I cannot login. It has nothing to do with 2FA. That is not the issue.
-
AntDracula (@ant_dracula) reported@_LeadPoisoning_ @awscloud That’s because it’s never up long enough to generate an error
-
Robert Culver (@senorculver) reported@awscloud Wow, that’s it, no explanation? No, and for your trouble, and extra work and panic, a free month of service or anything. Just our bad, see you next month?
-
RickDavis404 (@RickDavis404) reported@awscloud I left an EKS cluster running while waiting for my Fable 5 limit to reset...only been a few days, but Opus says my aws bill was pretty accurate, just a small rounding error, still over 950 trillion dollars 🤑
-
Santhosh (@santhoshv) reported@D8118199174282 @AWSSupport Many stopped services, also I never assumed health issues with billing itself
-
Corey Quinn (@QuinnyPig) reportedI want to hear the inside story of the largest @awscloud project. Not bill run, nor S3. I’m talking about what it took to fix all the hardcoded “jeff@“ userID stuff when @ajassy rose. Not kidding: it woulda been orders of magnitude easier for him to change his name to “Jeff.”
-
CaptainAmericaTex (@CaptAmericaTx) reported@LayoffAI During the last 12 months Amazon AWS had outages directly caused by initiatives from the AI group (with associated revenue impact). No surprise they are down sizing the snake oil sales men group.
-
Steven Coburn (@pcgamer11) reported@PlayStation We can't play the open beta rn because PSN IS DOWN. Yes, it uses/runs on @awscloud but you could at least ACKNOWLEDGE the issue!!!
-
Vaibhav Khatri (@vaibhavkhatrii) reported@AWSSupport Believe me when I saw this, I had to check my BP. No issue is more than someone’s life.
-
bittermelon (@melon_thief) reported@AWSSupport Moving my domains and hosting to Cloudflare. There should have been a service bulletin on the billing page explaining the issue
-
GettingMyGlitchOff (@GettingMyGlitch) reported@AWSSupport Again there is a mass wave of suspensions like in May, I'm assuming in error as I've been on this platform for over 10 years and this seems to be happening more frequently. Emails from mturk-noreply havent worked in a long time so any updates on this situation?
-
David Madelin 🇺🇦 (@pintofbeer) reported@AWSSupport I just can't fathom how you are STILL showing these broken numbers in the dashboard, for god's sake, hide them! This is no joke; people will be really stressed out about this and might do irrational things.
-
Indy Singh (@indy_singh_uk) reported.@awscloud you might want to update your status page. Cloudfront is down.
-
Md Jaoyad (@JaoyadCode) reported@awscloud you should fix it otherwise people will become sick after watching the bill!
-
M (@mdw864) reported@awscloud can you PLEASE answer me? You’ve just turned off my Business because you will not help me. I need you to stop charging me. Do not tell me to login because I do not know the email address that was used to open the account. All I know is my bank account is being charged
-
D (@D8118199174282) reported@AWSSupport Will the affected accounts be compensated for this issue?
-
Armando J. Perez-Carreno (@perezcarreno) reported@ngriffin_uk @awscloud The problem wasn’t only the billing page. Many people received billing usage alerts with tremendous spend. In our case, it was additionally frustrating because we couldn’t log in due to an MFA bug while we were about to board a ten hour flight. Some of us do care.
-
Jeff B. Vockrodt (@JeffBVockrodt) reported@AWSSupport You should send follow up emails alerting all your customers to this issue. I woke up to a $719 million billing estimate which although absurd conjures a potential nightmare of getting it worked out
-
Edward Donner (@edwarddonner) reported@darkosubotica @awscloud @AWSSupport Thanks Darko. I'm keen to be involved. I'm aware there are challenges. A billing bug shouldn't cause a global outage or delete backups. I believe these are solvable. I don't want the possibility of financial ruin from a mistake or hack. Will DM.

Ritesh Roushan (@devXritesh) reportedA good architecture starts by separating document storage, signing, identity verification, and notifications into independent services. 1. API Gateway All requests (upload, sign, download, share) pass through the API Gateway. It handles authentication, rate limiting, request validation, and routing. 2. Document Service Contracts are uploaded directly to object storage (Amazon S3/GCS/Azure Blob). Metadata such as owner, participants, document status, and version history is stored in PostgreSQL. Large files never pass through application servers. 3. Identity Verification Service Before signing, users verify their identity using email OTP, SMS OTP, OAuth, or KYC providers depending on compliance requirements. A verified identity token is issued before allowing signatures. 4. Signing Service Each signature request creates an immutable signing event. Documents are locked while applying a signature to prevent conflicts when multiple users sign simultaneously. Optimistic locking or version numbers help resolve concurrent updates. 5. Audit Log Service Every action upload, view, download, sign, reject, revoke is published to Kafka. Events are stored in an append-only audit database with timestamps, signer identity, IP address, and device information, creating a tamper-resistant audit trail. 6. Notification Service Kafka events trigger email, SMS, and push notifications asynchronously so users are notified instantly without slowing down API responses. 7. Security • Encrypt files at rest (AES-256) • TLS for data in transit • Short-lived signed URLs for downloads • RBAC for document access • Hash every signed document (SHA-256) to detect tampering • Store digital certificates securely using a KMS/HSM 8. Scalability Deploy services independently behind load balancers. Use Redis for caching document metadata and sessions. Object storage handles millions of documents, while Kafka decouples services and absorbs traffic spikes. Read replicas improve download performance, and multi-region replication ensures disaster recovery. This architecture provides secure storage, concurrent signing, legal compliance, high availability, and scales to millions of contracts worldwide.

Wordy (@AnotherRadProd) reported@AWSSupport OMG... I was gonna have a heart attack! I haven't looked at this project for years and I can't even remember how to login!
-
Jan Jezek (@jbodl) reported@awscloud First you sent alerts that the account was over budget by 6-figure numbers. When the user logged in, the billing console confirmed the same. No banner there was an issue, no followup email, nothing. Just wannabe funny jokes on X. Seriously, AWS?
-
kyun anon (Gobhi ka fool ) (@anondis1122) reported@AWSSupport @ashu_sharma17 Yeah. Why tf not send an email.. that there is an issue. I have a medical condition. It put my life in danger
