I'm sure that was an important factor, but wouldn't this in any case just be a bill to a startup with no money on hand? It's hard to make companies (without money) economically responsible for anything I guess, it even seems hard to make companies with money responsible sometimes.

- bjarneh 6y agoYou're probably correct. It really makes you think twice about setting up some of those cloud services without a hard limit cutoff.

That's when I found out the card has a credit limit of over €50,000. Reading this, I wonder if we should contact the bank and ask for another card with a lower limit, to use with various cloud services. We are 99% on-premises, but have about €200/month in various GCS/AWS usage.
