So, in my MSDN subscription, myself and a developer set up an Azure SQL 480mb database to test performance, initially on the vcore model. Charges very quickly accrued and despite practically nothing being done with the database beyond the initial load and a couple of performance tests, we were at the £17 mark within a day or two! Yikes.. so we experimented with Basic DTU, Standard S0 and S1 and settled on S1 9DTU20) as being ideal. Today, I log in to the portal to find my vcore (gen5) charges have more than doubled to nearly £34! This is despite nobody using it at all (the developer was on leave, and I was busy elsewhere).
Can anyone advise what's going on here?

You can clearly see our changes/trials with basic, S0 and S1 (settled on S1)- so why is vcore still increasing as well?
Thanks for any insight
