Title: I&#x27;ve got a VPS which I use for small programming projects and college assignments. Two weeks ago I received an e-mail from my provider, stating that &quot;your VPS has been transmitting a lot of outgoing traffic which results in a very large traffic usage bill&quot;. In September on my 500 GB data-limit VPS, it had been transmitting 27 TB of data traffic. This resulted in a € 3300 extra charge on my € 15 VPS. I&#x27;m expecting a similar bill for this month.<p>Of course I immediately shut down my VPS after the notice two weeks ago, but by then it had been using these amounts of traffic for a month and a half.<p>What are my options here? I can&#x27;t afford to pay &gt; € 5000 unfortunately. Does anyone have similar experiences?
