If you use Netlify in the free tier you cannot automatically go to pro tier either. Yet they will charge you for bandwidth > 100GB, and THERE IS NO WAY FOR YOU TO SWITCH THAT OFF, even in the free tier.

"Should be fine" is exactly what is not the case here. Better check your Vercel terms again.

Wow that's indeed very bad from Netlify.

From every Vercel document that I can read though is that when you exceed the limits of free tier they are just locked for 30 days unless you upgrade to Pro.

So unless I am mistaken this cannot happen on Vercel.

I've never given them any card details. Worst they can do is shutdown my website (or replace with goatse).

If you're in the US at least there are still bill collectors and the like which I wouldn’t want to deal with personally
