I want to know what the ban was for. What if the ban was due to a crypto mining operation? All I am asking for is a little more context before pointing any fingers.

#52It seems like a large overhead, but making your app multi-cloud compatible to counter for scenarios such as this might be not be as crazy as it sounds. 99.99% availability doesn't cover for scenarios like this.
I'd just make a backup AWS account with separate billing before I worked on multi-cloud.

Anecdotal but I listed a few graphics cards on Amazon with the same account I had AWS on and they booted me without any recourse or contact information. Very strange.
There really needs to be some more legal precedent around this stuff.

You'd have to do something like construe the provision of service as an implied contract to continuity in the same way that T&Cs assert that usage of a system implies acceptance of some rules.

Have the same experience with AWS, the customer service is nice and I always felt like I’m talking to a human and not a bot like with Google. Google is just the worst nightmare for developers
dvery time the Google Cloud sales people contact me to try to increase my enterprise's use of GCP, I tell them this over and over. I don't want to give my money to Google if AWS does a much better job of customer support. And we're serious: we use all 3 clouds, we have TAMs in each of them, and a direct line to senior leadership. I used to work for Google and then left for a startup; the sales people kept calling and…
The TSE should have been able to override the accruing charges on their GCP account. Or they can use another payment method to pay the GCP bill. It sounds like funds they are owed, that they would use to pay GCP bill are locked away until the account is verified.
