Hello, ive used up my free trial long time a gon and now "is not eligible for an Azure free account". Is it possible to use lowest tier services without binding my credit card?(im scared that azure/or me can accidently start expensive services). I will soon have to renew my certificates, and practical exercises would help me a lot in preparing for this

the certification renewals are open book, you dont need to practise if that is your only goal

to be honest, id like to also get better in using azure and its services by practise. Im currently not employed so i dont have subscription to train .as it was previously paid for by the employer

yea.. there isnt really much other than the free account you already used

well, it sucks ;/

some labs have videos you can click through but its not the real thing

yeah, i agree
i think it kinda hurts community and people who wants to work with azure or wants to come back to it after a considerable pause. But I understand that it is currently impossible. Well, life
dense grove
well i know, but after this period its gone
i would like to have less resources but use it whenever i want

well you can use bunch of stuff for free for a year with the trial

yeah i know that, but ive already used that when i was in the college(i was not aware of this period, just curiuos about services) and now i need to learn it for a job interview. And there is no possibility to do it safely without setting limits on my credit card(if it would work, no idea) or setting limits on azure itself.

you can use budgets on the subscription and always delete stuff after you finish
but as a student you had azure for students, didnt have to use free account

there is no partnership, its a global offer
if you have student email address, you can redeem it
