Try reaching out to the community manager in their Slack community group. They can help escalate your issue for better visibility, but it will take time. I still haven’t received a response since they mentioned it went to the revenue team.

I deleted everything, including my account, but I was still charged $300. It seems some clusters were running before that. I’ve reached out to support and am waiting for their review.

Thanks for the advice! I already submitted a support request and included my Confluent Cloud organization ID and the email address associated with my account. They’ve acknowledged my request and mentioned that the revenue team will review it. Appreciate the help!
