I love bunny so much - I host 10+ (Hugo) websites there and I pay basically nothing (+ CDN, DNS, ...).

Have you managed to turn everything off? I had been playing with magic containers, turned everything off and then discovered every month I was charged 1usd + vat for nothing. A bit annoying.

There seems to be a $1 minimum charge on all accounts, regardless of whether or not you use them[1]

Yes, that is what I pay ("basically nothing")

So "free DNS hosting" is misleading marketing? (I signed up but wasn't asked for credit card info).

IIUC this is by design. If you have an account with them you will pay at least $1/month. The only way to get rid of this is to delete the account.

TBF you can keep the account dormant if you delete all the resources. I have like $3 in balance left for over a year now.

From TFA:

> As with all bunny.net services, accounts using the platform are subject to our standard $1/month minimum spend

how do you pay nothing? As CDN isn't free?

Correct. In Bunny you have a $1/month minimum cost. I guess that's so low for them, that it's kinda nothing.
