Getting no response from billing@huggingface.co on email. My billing account is constantly showing active GPU usage even though the space (tttarun/fine_tune_whisper) is d. It has been about 2 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. team@huggingface.co

Got a reply to the email. Confirming the resolution shortly. Thanks.
