Upgrade from AlwaysFree to PayAsYouGo to avoid deletion with an initial charge of 93€?

Summary:

I've received two emails saying that one or more of my Always Free computing instances will be deleted because idle status for more than a week (I don't think so, I use them) and to prevent deletion I can convert my accout to Pay As You Go.

The email says: With PAYG, you will not be charged as long as your usage for all OCI resources remains within the Always Free limits.

So I've decided to put my credit card, but I've didn't finished because the initial charge was 93€ Really? for an "idle" instance?

Can you help? I really would like to keep the instances, but I don't understand at all why that charge.

Howdy, Stranger!
