Normal refund rules
Refund = currently effective order amount + ineffective order amount - used resource value
Currently effective order amount: Refers to the amount paid for the currently effective order, excluding discounts and vouchers.
Ineffective order amount: Refers to the amount paid for the order that will take effect in the future, excluding vouchers.
The used resource value is calculated as follows:
For the used resources, if the usage has lasted at least one month as of the date of return, fees will be deducted by month; otherwise, fees will be deducted in a pay-as-you-go manner.
The usage is accurate down to the second.
If the refund is ≤ 0, it will be calculated as 0, and resources will be returned.
Note:
Discounts and vouchers are not returned.
Order discount: The discount will be calculated and deducted for used resources at the original price, and only the remainder can be refunded.
Refund amount = discount amount - original price * used time proportion
The refund will be credited to your account at the ratio of cash to trial credit paid upon purchase.
Notes
Before returning an instance, check whether the above conditions are met first and make sure that your data has been migrated, as the system will clear the returned database resources immediately after the return is completed.
