I'm a GitHub admin. Did not receive this e-mail. We don't have the GitHub Code Quality feature enabled anywhere, though.

The e-mail seems clear: Someone enabled the feature in the organization. The feature was in free preview, but the free preview is ending. If they leave it enabled, it will be billed at the new rate.

It's pretty clear that "organization" is being used throughout the e-mail, so they're not referring to this person's free personal GitHub account.

How can you possibly bill someone without billing information?

Its just a normal letter containing the details on what to expect, its more of a heads-up than a shake down to me. If the billing information is not there and account still continue to use the feature then the account would be disabled or something similar. Question is, should the email have all the if-else situations, probably not feasible.

The person is confused. They're not getting billed.

The organization's responsible billing contact would get billed.

This feature can't even be enabled on free, personal accounts.

> GitHub Code Quality is available for organization-owned repositories on GitHub Team and GitHub Enterprise Cloud plans.

Both of those are paid plans, so the billing information available. As the message says, this email is not for individual user, but rather for github org admin. I guess someone made the poster an admin, they are receiving admin-only messages and are freaking out now?
