Reviewing Talk usage charges

Use the Talk usage charges report to understand your current Talk account balance, and a breakdown of usage charges between the dates you choose. Your usage charges are broken down into the following categories:

• Calls
• Voicemail transcriptions
• Recordings
• Text messages
• Phone numbers

Additionally, the report shows the total amount of your Talk credit you used between the dates you chose. The amount might be negative if you pay for Talk usage at the end of the month. After your invoice is paid, your account balance will update. Use this article to understand how to access, configure, and export your Talk usage charges report. The usage charges report updates in near real-time.

Note: This page will replace the History tab on the Talk settings page. However, the History tab will remain live until mid-2020 to give you time to migrate any reporting dependencies to the new usage charges page. The usage charges page contains the most up to date information about your usage charges.
