Upgrade from free trial to paid account

[rj su]

Hi I'm a little bit confused here. So let's say I sign up for a trial account. I get 300$ credit right? So let's say after a few days, I got 250$ left and I decided to upgrade my account. Will the 250$ still be credited and will consume first before billing my account? Or is it forfeited and as soon as I upgrade, my billing account will be the one to be charged?

Per this GCP article:

“ If you upgrade to a paid account before the 12-month trial period ends, any remaining amount of your initial $300 credit remains in your account. This credit expires after 12 months, when your free trial period would have originally ended. Any charges you incur between your upgrade and the expiration of the free-trial credit are billed first against the credit.”

I hope this helps.
