I run 2.7 Have for weeks. But from where I am sitting you had the option to
eat somewhere else.  If you had reached out to Google and said "Hey, I want
to stick with GAE but you have to fix these things if you want more money",
and they had agreed that would be one thing.  But you instead are in the
dine an dash scenario. I at this food, and now I want a refund because it
cost more than I wanted it to.

 

They gave you a tool to tell you how much the new costs would be long in
advance.  They gave you slider nobs so that if you wanted to lower your
performance you could keep the pricing you used to have. 

 

If your cost went up it is because you didn't gimp your performance.  Is it
shitty that things cost more?  Yes. Is it Google's fault you didn't turn the
sliders, bail, or implement fixes to reduce costs? No.

 

I on the other hand:

Saved 20% by implementing 2.7 for concurrency.

(I do not use thread safe) 

 

Saved 25% by Fixing my cache headers (with minimal documentation on how to
do so)

 

And as a result the costs are not significantly higher on Release than they
were on pre-release.

My bill is higher because I merged most of my apps in to one mult-tenant app
so a bunch of 28 hours of instances stopped being free.. 

 

But yeah, you are wining (one N not two).  If you get the 90 day notice that
your rent is going to increase, vacate or don't complain when your bill is
higher.

You really make no sense to me,
Let me try to explain you the situation with a similar analogy:

Burger King decides to roll out a Frequent Eaters Card (will be referred to
as FEC from now on).
I get a FEC to pay at least %50 less when I eat at Burger King
But Burger King's FEC system doesn't function, they tell me that a problem
occurred and they can't issue my FEC, but I am a Burger King addict, and
despite the FEC problem, I still keep on eating at Burger King for days.

So FEC is Python 2.7 here. I got it, but it doesn't work.

Should Burger King cover my losses?
----

To give a real life example, above scenario happens a lot on supermarkets
here in Turkey, they keep rolling out promotions, but at the check out, they
almost never get recognized, I am sure this is a marketing strategy, since a
lot of people are careless, they probably earn a lot malfunctioning so, but
they ALWAYS cover your losses when you ask them

I am not saying Appengine is malfunctioning on purpose, I know that there
are problems, and they are trying very hard to fix them, but I am just
hoping they would cover our losses
