New AWS Free Tier launching July 15th
I like the following changes: The ability to select a "Free plan" or "Paid plan" and "If you are new to AWS, you receive USD $100 in credits and can also earn up to an additional USD $100 in credits by completing activities." This will be great to help monitor/limit undesired charges and potentially sandbox accounts in enterprise. u/quinnypig since I know this will be in the next LWIA. From a security perspective: time to restrict `freetier:UpgradeAccountPlan` to avoid unwanted charges and also to avoid a sneaky way of potentially impacting resources. More on reddit.com

I signed up for the free tier because I had to use AWS for a web dev class. But this is what it’s saying. What do I do? Not sure what I did wrong
There is no such thing as a free tier AWS account. There are some resources and services that do not incur charges. Use cost explorer and billing reports to get a breakdown of your charges. That should tell you what you’re spending your money on. If you do not have 2fa set up on your root account, do it now. This sub reddit is full of people who got $10,000+ bills because they didn’t. Also set up 2fa for all your iam accounts. Set security groups on your public instances to only allow the ip and ports that need access. Delete everything when you no longer need it.

July 11, 2025 - And what about new things in aws that come along 2 years later? If we used the free account already , what we supposed to do?
