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

Silksteele (@silksteele) reported@adamKDean @awscloud Pshhhh! That's a rounding error against your consulting fees and contract work. I'm surprised you even noticed.

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…

That Other Hecate (@HecateKeys) reported@OwenGregorian 1) Forgets how DNS works. AWS goes down for days. 2) Forgets how arithmetic & metering works. Trillion-dollar bills for scant usage. @awscloud Regretting all those mass layoffs of your veteran engineers yet?

Mario Giampieri (@mario_giampieri) reported@AWSSupport Another update- I received a canned response explaining to me what sign in credentials are and sending me a link to open a new account. Eleven months of this.

Negi (@negihere) reported@sorower01 @awscloud Some glitch may be

Zenwatts 🇺🇸 (@BullCall101) reported@awscloud Not my problem. Maybe sell a yacht or two and fix it yourself.

mark seery (@140ismymax) reportedPeter DeSantis talking at #agenticaisummit There will NOT be one AI chip type. If multiple AI chips take multiple years to bring to market, you have to be making assumptions about model requirements in that time frame. It's a systems problem, including the network. Constraint drives innovation. Future is bright and built together. Peter DeSantis SVP, Foundational AI Models, Custom Silicon, Quantum Computing, Amazon @awscloud @amazon @BerkeleyRDI #AI

Anjishnu Ganguly (@Anjishnu46) reportedI posted again that day because the same issue was blocking our AWS Activate application too. @AWSSupport said it had been passed along again. Another public reply, same unusable account.

Drate Berry (@drateberry) reportedIs anyone else experiencing issues with the @awscloud Billing system? I’m trying to add a new card and both the physical and virtual versions are throwing a verification issue. Bank is saying they don’t see anything on their end. Waiting to hear back from AWS Support.
-
Adam Peterson (@_adam_here_) reported@AWSSupport Even the AWS health page was down. Total AWS system downtime for 12-13 minutes. AWS appears back now.
-
ErinE (@WhoaNowNelly) reported@DRiceHockey @WNBA @awscloud Same applies to all their stats. Their PRA is gonna go down too. That's the nature of injuries. Makes it harder for the individual, but does not increase the difficulty of the actual shot itself.

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 🤑
-
Ryan Varghese Mathew (@RyanVarghese14) reportedHi @awscloud @AWS I am currently facing issues from regarding certain payments. And despite incessantly reaching out on the support team and the email, I have been charged and there has been no formal support extended. I know you guys can do better than this.

Jim Osman (@EdgeCGroup) reported@awscloud Real innovation starts with people solving real problems.
-
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
-
The AI Therapist (@TheAIShrink) reported@MikeLongTerm @amazon @awscloud EC2 on AMD CPUs. The cloud bill goes down, the margins go up. aws is quietly fixing its cost structure while everyone watches the models. smart

dale (@daleverett) reported@pkyanam @AWSSupport bro so its an error>???
-
Ayush Awasthi (@Ayush_awa) reported@AWSSupport Its the third day today. The only mail I received from aws was all about “We are getting someone to investigate this” Since then I havent received any update. My only issue is that these things are time sensitive and you cant just take days after days with no real status updates
