Google Places API billing

Hi all

(Apologies if I am in the wrong forum, I've never posted in the community before)

Just wondering if anyone would know why I would have been charged an obscene amount of money $470 for 16,000 API calls for opening hours in my app (I was only testing, haven't even deployed it so no idea how it could have been so many) when the rates on the pricing page are as follows:

Web service

formatted_phone_number, international_phone_number, opening_hours, current_opening_hours, secondary_opening_hours, or website

MONTHLY VOLUME RANGE(Price per CALL)
0–100,000100,001–500,000500,000+
Places request cost
+ 0.003 USD per each
(+ 3.00 USD per 1000)
Places request cost
+ 0.0024 USD per each
(+ 2.40 USD per 1000)

By my calculation if I have made 16,686 @ $3USD each I should be charged $50. What am I missing??

 Any help would be much appreciated!
