Just earlier this week it was charging me for some mysterious "api management service" --- it was such a pain in the ass to cancel. I had no idea what it was about. I contacted support, got them to supposedly reverse the charges and reported the credit card as lost before the charges went through just in case. I just wanted a damn api key and couldn't for the life of me figure out how to find it (I work at a cloud computing company, I do this stuff for a living and I still couldn't figure it out).

It's an obtusely confusing interface with opaque pricing that you can just magically sign up for with innocent sounding names. It's like the dark pattern people from Intuit came on over for a house party and got drunk one night.
