Really, I have already contact with support they say 2-3 days
Hey,Do you got your refund?
Is there any reply from gcp team?
Not yet, but there is a prompt response from the GCP billing team.
I feel the same way, but the results of the investigation have not yet come out and I have been anxious for a long time.
It’s highly likely that this billing bug is caused by Gemini continuing to think for tens of hours.
Therefore, once Gemini starts thinking after accepting an API key, it continues to think for tens of hours even after the API key is deleted.
I had billing support confirm this evidence, and things started to move forward. This was evidence that completely denied the leaking of the API key.
not yet, they said 2-3 days
I’m just a student, tried to find where to learn and study, and I got this bug, I’m not going to pay for this bug, I also been anxious for a long time.
I’m stressed, I can’t study at school because of this thing. GOOOGLE
I have to pay a lot for college fee, I don’t have enough money for this thing because of this
My project at school just stopped when this bug using all my credit free from first time link bank card
i am really stressed and cant do anything, maybe i will say something to my friends in my country to avoid using service with bug like this
This incident is a serious problem, as some people have even made payments. It must be even more difficult for students. Let’s hope Google can take action.
thanks a lot , I’m hope so
It’s been over a week since I last contacted a human agent about this issue (my second attempt, by the way), and I still haven’t gotten any response. The only emails I’m receiving are automated ones from Google, still demanding payment for the transactions.
I’m completely fed up with how Google is handling this. Even though I’ve asked my bank to cancel the payments, these emails are causing me a lot of stress. I don’t know what else to do. Has anyone else gotten a refund or had these charges canceled yet?
They are billing high (10x) and then settling it down to the actual after 4 days. However, this can totally disrupt the cash flow of my company as they are taking almost (10x cost of per day billing) X (5x cost of 4 days settlement)
For eg: if my billing per day is approximately 20,000 INR..
I have to pay around 20,000 X 10 X 5 = 10,00,000 INR upfront. This large amount can very well disrupt the cash flow.
They are not taking the money, and their accounts are settled properly later. BUT this upfront amount is stuck only to keep my account running.
in few days back, a screenshot shot you can see usage for 14th Sept. But if compared to the latest. The usage for 14 Sept is gone.
Hey, Did you got refund?
Anyone got reply from google or no ?
It have been few days since they told me 2-3 business days
I think you just give that user - Google Payments to spam box
They want us pay for what we don’t ever use, that not fair at all,
A lot student here got this problem, like me, I had to shutdown my project that would use virtual machine at final project at school,
