Vultr cancels and deletes credit cards and completely closes accounts

Many of our friends are worried that when using overseas hosting companies, businesses like VULTR can support credit card payment. After we bind the credit card, if the account does not recharge, the balance will be directly deducted from the credit card. Do we also worry about how to deduct fees directly from our account in case that the merchants are not willing or how to do so one day. In fact, so far, merchants generally do not do this, which is an illegal act.

We should remember that when using the VULTR server, they use the post billing method. For example, if we use it in December, the fee will be deducted on the first day of the next month. At the same time, the payment will be deducted from the balance first. If it is not enough, it will detect whether there is an automatic renewal channel for the agreement. At the same time, if we really don't want to use the machine, we should delete it in time. After deletion, there will be no funds. Deleting a machine does not mean shutting down or suspending the machine. We need to delete it completely before we can deduct fees.

I saw that some netizens in the group asked me whether I could delete the VULTR account and cancel the credit card binding. This is certainly possible. If we really do not want to use the VULTR account or we need to cancel the binding of credit cards, we can do so according to the following method.

First, if the credit card is cancelled

If we want to cancel the credit card binding association, write a work order application.

 Subject: Delete Credit card information Content: Hello, I want to permanently delete my Vultr account. Please help me delete my credit card information. Thank you very much!

We write a work order application. To BILLING department. After receiving the reply, we can know that it has been handled by us.

Second, how to delete the account completely

Generally, we don't need to do this. We just need to delete the machine in the account. You need to restart the machine later. It's not necessary to delete and cancel the account. Of course, if you really need to delete the account completely, it is also OK.

 Delete account address: https://my.vultr.com/billing/cancel/

This requires caution. After deletion, our account has disappeared.

We can see that if we really want to delete the account, click Continue Closing Account. This method only closes the account, and the credit card information is still in the account. You can reactivate the account for use by yourself.

In short, when using the VULTR account, we should remember to pay attention to the account information at any time. It is better to recharge to the account for consumption, and delete the machine when not in use.
