Microsoft was the most baffling - happy to give me 25k+ credits for free in their startup program, unable to let me pay them for the same setup going forwards.

My quota requests weren't outrageous - never more than 20 VM's, albeit very large VM's.

It is not your quota that is the problem, it is the credit risk.

If you paperwork is not up to spec, they are running the risk of credit exposure when you the customer doesn't' pay. Higher risks for any provider when there is no legal entity to sue etc, which is why they want you to convert to invoice billing.
