Why was I charged $1 for Zendesk Talk usage when I didn't use it?

Even if you didn't use Zendesk Talk, you might still be charged $1 due to having an active phone number on your account.

The Talk Lite subscription itself is free, but maintaining an active phone number incurs a monthly charge. This happens because when you start a free Suite trial, a Talk number is automatically assigned to you. If you don't plan to use Talk, you should remove this number to avoid charges.

The cost of a phone number varies by country, with local numbers in the US and Canada costing $1. For more details, check out theZendesk talk number availability and pricing.
