We have received Azure start up cresits and added the subscirption.

We see support plan selected is Standard plan as default for which support ticket was raised and they say its not supported as part of Azure for startups credits, and we are unable to change to free plan too.

We are worried on what are all the other hidden charges or services that gets selected by default which we are not aware.

Anybody in this forum to thro some insights which everyone should be aware?

    Hello Abhi,

    Thanks for your question.

    Azure credits can be applied toward any Azure product listed here. Azure credits can't be used for non-Azure products, products purchased through Microsoft Azure Marketplace, or Microsoft Support Plans. See:

    These are the support options available.

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-for-startups/benefits/azure-for-startups#which-azure-support-option-is-right-for-my-question

    Standard support is an add-on not a standard azure service hence why it is not covered.
