Billing stops when the pod ends. It never waits for the provider to release the machine. - If you delete the pod, charging stops at your delete request. - If the pod breaks because its node fails, billing stops then. On Secure nodes you are also credited for the interrupted rental. - If the node stops responding while your pod runs, billing pauses until the node is back. Outage time before the pause is refunded automatically. Time in which your pod still answered SSH stays charged.
