I discovered fly because I made an heroku account, connected the wrong card (I’m a broke college student), and heroku told me I couldn’t change the card for the next 30 days. This was all within 5 mins of making my account. I couldn’t find a support avenues.

I tried many clever workarounds but their alt-account defector is top notch (props to that team).

Asked around in dev circles and they recommended me fly io.

Idk who hurt heroku for them to put such measures in place but I’ve never encountered such strict policies before, and I’ll forever avoid places like that.
