Getting no response from [billing@huggingface.co](mailto:billing@huggingface.co) on email. My billing account is constantly showing active GPU usage even though the space (tttarun/fine\_tune\_whisper) is paused. It has been about ~3 days since this is happening and the billing continues. I tried changing to free CPU hardware and also tried pausing the space. I have deleted the space now but the billing is still active. Waiting for a response from the team.

@tttarun would you mind telling me how you deleted the space. I tried to duplicate hugginggpt space and it failed due to limitation but I can not find how to delete it so I can try again by disabling some of the import libraries.
