Hey folks! A few days ago, I created my first Oracle Cloud account to deploy a free VM. I was not able to deploy it on the region though, due to a Host Out of Capacity error. Thus, I thought of upgrading my account to PAYG. But I got a generic error - Something went wrong, please try again later.
So I thought of deleting my account and starting with a fresh account. Upon not finding a way to delete the whole account, I went ahead with deleting my tenancy. Then I tried to create a new account, but I cannot do that since Oracle allows only one free account per billing address. I cannot use my other cards since all of them have the same billing address. Now I'm stuck in between - Neither can I get my old account/tenancy back nor create a new account.
I tried calling the Oracle support, and they told me to contact Oracle sales since it's a new account-related query. I tried several times but was not able to connect to the mentioned phone number.
Also tried with their Live Chat feature - When I tell the representative my issue, they tell me that they are redirecting my chat to the concerned department. Since there is always a wait time, my session gets disconnected automatically before I can reach someone in that department.
Is there a workaround? What are my options now? I thought of going with Oracle Cloud since they are providing a generous computing instance for free. I want to host my backend service written in Golang with MySQL DB. Feel free to suggest if you know any cheap/free alternatives.
