GitHub turns on code security billing but you can't turn it off

2•wallarug•4h ago
hey,

I released about a week ago github started billing me for "code security" features on my github teams / company account.

I never asked for this feature but it seemed to turn itself on. I know they sent an email asking about it a month ago and I went and checked, it wasn't being used on any of the repos.

Now, in the billing page, I have "code security" accruing on my account for apparently 5 users now. - It doesn't say who or what or why this is happening. - There's no way to switch it off. - It just keeps going up and up and up.

I turned on the budget for it and that just seems to allow the costs to keep accruing.

I don't want to pay for "advanced code security" anymore. I accept I should have checked this earlier... that's my fault.

Support is AFK (still waiting on response).

However, there is no way to remove this now. Half-baked billing analytics with no off switch.

What should I do?

Am I the only one with this problem?
