Starting today, you can use AWS Cost Explorer’s new reservation expiration alerts capabilities to receive email alerts 60, 30, or 7 days in advance of your reservation expiration date, as well as on the date of expiration. These notifications can be sent to up to 10 email recipients.
To turn on reservation expiration alerts, navigate to the Reservation Summary page, locate the reservation expiration Key Performance Indicator (KPI) in the top right corner, and click on the “Manage alerts” link. From there, simply indicate when you would like to receive reservation expiration alerts, and AWS will begin monitoring your reservation portfolio and automatically send you alerts.
I tried to create an IAM account and grant it all privileges but there was no way to change the credit card using the IAM account, even though I granted payment privileges.
The only solution was to contact AWS customer services and tell them that I cannot connect from another computer to my account. They fixed something on their side and my customer could now connect.
