Copilot in GitHub

Body

Hello,

I just signed up for GitHub Copilot on April 18(19/4/2026), but the system charged me $6.89 directly without offering the 30-day free trial period. Please check whether my account has skipped the official 30-day free trial period.

I wonder how to check whether the free trial is used, and I didn't find any 0$ payment in my account, which may suggest the free trial was never activated.Please check it for me and tell me the true case, thanks.

Also, I wonder why I didn't see the annual option costs 100$ yearly when I upgrade copilot. If annual subscription is avaliable, please tell me how to switch presently monthly payment to annual subscription.
