First, the bad news: Last month WizzairSucks.com received a $564 invoice from MediaTemple our hosting service (or approx. 3200% over the usual bill of $17.00).

The good news is they offered us this cool T-shirt!!! WOW!!!

Thank you for your reply.

With the (gs) Grid-Service, you are allocated 2,000 GPUs per billing cycle. I suggest taking a look at your GPU tool in the AccountCenter to see if you can make adjustments to prevent your account from going over your allotted GPUs in the next billing cycle. For more information regarding GPU usage, please visit the following pages:

As a courtesy, we can offer you one of our cool new t-shirts free of charge. For a detailed guide on reducing your GPU usage in the future, please see the following article:

Please keep in mind that we were able to notify you of your potential overages prior to your server using additional GPUs.
