could you set a limit to the credit-card associated with the cloud service? Or would it still create costs after the limit has run out, which they would collect in other ways?

No, setting a limit doesn't work. They will still try to charge you. A friend had a charge for $0.35 running for a year after his credit card expired. They closed his account later but would definitely come after you if the amount was significant.

The latter: you've used the service so, even if your card rejected the payment, you'd still have a debt with your provider.
