Unsubscribing from Inactive Resources

Inactive resources are those in a resource package or add-on package you have purchased again, for which you have specified an effective time. In an unsubscription from an inactive resource, no handling fees are charged and the used cash coupons are returned.

Your request for unsubscribing from an order of more than $1000 USD needs to be reviewed by your account manager. If your account manager does not review it within 24 hours, your request will be approved automatically. By default, the unsubscribed amount is included in the month when the order is successfully unsubscribed from. If your request is approved in the next month and the unsubscription is also completed in the next month, the unsubscribed amount will be counted into the next month. You can choose Bills > Bill Details to query the transactions. For details, see Viewing Bill Details.

Example:

You paid $2000 USD for ECSs on August 20, 2021, and requested to unsubscribe from them on September 30, 2021. Your account manager would review your request because its amount exceeded $1,000 USD.

  • If the account manager approved the unsubscription request on September 30, 2021, the refunded amount was included in the bill for September and the transactions are included in billing cycle 2021/9.
  • If the account manager approved the unsubscription request on October 01, 2021, the refunded amount was included in the bill for October and the transactions are included in billing cycle 2021/10.

  • Special unsubscriptions from the resource are being requested.
