It’s hard on AWS as well, but I agree. There’s just no incentive for the billing experience to be better.

aws, gcp, azure (the ones I work with), they don't provide a off the shelf solution to block after some budget ammount. This is not aceptable.

They charge for a lot of things "by the hour". Things like S3, load balancers, storage.

Deleting those when a customer hits a limit will lose customer data or remove things that might be hard to add back. The "I hit my AWS limit and they deleted all my data" headlines will result.

and excluding those things makes the limit soft again..

Maybe relying on one company to store all the data your company has is a terrible idea
