If you created an account and funded it and you didn’t use any services, you can request the refund. Let open a ticket with their support team then they can assist you.
Reverse, if you have used any of their services, you cannot get the refund because they offer hourly billing, you can always destroy your server and only pay for what you’ve used.

DigitalOcean charged $1 when I enter my credit card, Why?

When you enter a card to your DigitalOcean account, They will send a preauthorization request to the issuing bank to verify that the card being added has been issued by the bank and that they will authorize the charges, this is why you will see a $1 charge in your card.
Normally, This authorization is refunded back to your card by your bank in no more than 30 days.

My card has ben Declined - Why ?

In some cases if your card has declined after enter to account, the main reason may is your card is a debit card. DigitalOcean’s payment processor does not accept pre-paid or “virtual” debit cards at this time. You can try with another credit cards or Paypal.

Unfortunately, Digitalocean has no direct DDoS Protection. If your site is under a ddos attack, they will block the traffic to your Droplet in 3hours and route this traffic to a null location to keep the network stable.
If you have a web server, I recommend use CloudFlare to set up DDoS Mitigation.
