I am worried about traffic counters and unexpected balance

Hi, community members! I am worried about traffic counters and unexpected balance usage when running automated collection tasks. How can you test billing transparency, expiration rules and refund conditions before topping up?

Hi there, a Thordata testing guide — https://www.thordata.com/blog/residenti ... -to-a-plan — recommends that you compare the provider’s traffic counter with your own logs during a controlled task. Check whether failed requests are billed, whether traffic expires, which payment methods are allowed and what the refund or replacement policy says before adding a large balance. Repeat the same sample twice and choose transparent billing over a low headline price that cannot be reconciled and check whether credits or replacements are offered when the service differs from its description.
