Why does my Azure AD B2C bill show phone charges named "Microsoft Entra External ID?"

Following the new [billing model](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/active-directory-b2c/) for Azure AD External Identities SMS Phone Authentication, you may notice a new name on your bill. Previously, Phone MFA was billed as "Azure Active Directory B2C - Basic 1 Multi-Factor Authentication." Now you’ll see the following names based on your [country or region pricing tier](https://aka.ms/B2CSMSCountries):

171+
* Microsoft Entra External ID - Phone Authentication Low Cost 1 Transaction
172+
* Microsoft Entra External ID - Phone Authentication Mid Low Cost 1 Transaction
173+
* Microsoft Entra External ID - Phone Authentication Mid High Cost 1 Transaction
174+
* Microsoft Entra External ID - Phone Authentication High Cost 1 Transaction
175+

Although the new bill mentions Microsoft Entra External ID, **you’re still billed for Azure AD B2C based on your core MAU count**.
