Resources are deleted but still charges received.

Hi divine s

I understand you’re still seeing charges even after deleting your Azure resources. This can happen because some services continue to generate costs until they’re fully removed or deactivated.

Here are a few common reasons:

1)Backup or Recovery Vaults: Even if a VM is deleted, backups stored in a vault can still incur charges until you stop protection and delete the backup data.

2)Storage Accounts or Disks: Data stored in unmanaged disks, snapshots, or storage accounts can continue billing.

3)Public IPs and App Service Plans: If a static IP or App Service Plan remains, it will still generate costs even if it’s not in use.

4)Marketplace or Defender Plans: Active third-party or Defender services can continue billing until explicitly stopped.

To identify the source of the charges:

1)Go to Cost Management → Cost Analysis in the Azure portal.

2)Filter by Resource to see which services are still billing you.

3)Delete or stop the ones you no longer need.

Please let me know if you face any challenge here, I can help you to resolve this issue further
