get a $20 pre paid credit card - or even less if you can
There is a workaround trick for that, which may be legal, here it goes:
Go to edx.org and create a account their(skip, if already have an acccount, u just need to sign in then)
Enroll in cs50 intro to cs.
Go to this site: cs50.io
Select log in with edx.
Voila!! You have created your account in cloud9 without credit/debit card!!!

Given that Cloud9 is now part of Amazon’s AWS platform, the tutorial videos are outdated. I’ve managed to figure things out for the most part, but not with any level of confidence. Here are my questions:
Amazon has a few new options to choose from when creating a new environment that I don’t understand. I also selected the “free” tier upon signing up, but apparently they can still bill me. What options should I choose to get the challenges to work and also avoid getting billed?

I’ve already had an Amazon AWS account that got suspended - probably do to inactivity, but I’m guessing as I only used it for a few months and haven’t touched it in over a year. But it’s linked to my only credit card so now I can’t make a new account because that also ends up being suspended.
So now what do I do?
