You unfortunately get what you pay for.

AWS is more expensive than God, but I'll be damned if you can't have a throat to choke in less than 10 minutes whenever something like this happens.

That's a common phrase, not to be taken literally.

It just means one single person (at the vendor) who you can complain to, or raise an issue with.
