Just migrated from the old $5 plan to the new $2.50 plan which even has more SSD space. Unfortunately, that involved copying a snapshot to a new instance, because they don't support "downgrading", though in this particular case there was no technical reason to not support it directly.

I just "downgraded" a legacy $10 instance to a $5 instance, as it now has better specs than what I was using, so they do allow it. It seems the $2.50 plan is a special class (probably loss-leading) and doesn't fully integrate with the rest of their products.
