FYI,
  I finally got around to trying this out.  I setup my first 20cores and let em run for about 5 hours.  I then came back and setup my second account and the next 20 cores.  Using the same CC for both accounts.  I got them all online and running.  30min Later I created a 3rd account and got to the payment screen and entered in the CC info.  This time it said it was unable to process the card.

  Which didn't surprise me as someone else here mentioned they could only get 2 accounts running.

  Well low and behold this flagged the card and the first 2 accounts related to it.  In no less than 3minutes the first 2 accounts were completely wiped out and the $200 free trials were instantly revoked.  All the VMs were removed and the first two accounts both now say that "your free trial has already been used"

  Kinda wondering if I'm IP blocked as well.  Tomorrow I'm going to try brand new email accounts with a brand new CC card.

  For what it's worth the 8core 7GB VMs runs just the same as the 8core 64GB VMs as far as k/hash is concerned.  The 8core 7GB VM according to their pricing calculator would get you hashing for 8 days straight before exhausting the $200 trial ammount.
