Spending limit: custom level?

Question

My azure subscription (MSDN)  has a spending limit on it (euro 0.00). If I remove the spending limit from the management portal, then is there a way to set a different level of spending?  I'd like to limit it to a new value... let's say 2 euro/month. Or in the future set it again to 0.00.

Not as of yet.  This is something we are looking at adding in the future.

Steven,
thank you for your reply but let me say I'm very frustrated by such a reply.  Let's go: it's not so difficult to implement a spending-limit-system on billing. I (we?) need a way to make tests without fear of breaking my credit-card!
A suggestion: consider to implement a daily basis spending limit (like Google App Engine) and not a monthly one.

Answer 3

I agree. Offering a "pay-as-you-go" subscription without the ability to set a spending limit is ridiculous. Come on Microsoft, it can't be that difficult to implement.
