Free plan — production deploys blocked with 74.4/300 credits remaining (stale credit flag)

Hi Netlify team,

My team’s production deploys are blocked with the error:
{“error”:“Account credit usage exceeded - new deploys are blocked until credits are added”}

However, my Usage & Billing page shows 74.4 of 300 credits still available for the current billing period. A production deploy costs 15 credits, so I should have enough for four more deploys.

Details:

  • Team: eduardomolinaurdiales-code’s team
  • Plan: Free
  • Billing period: Aug 24 – Sep 23, 2026
  • Credits available: 74.4 / 300
  • Credit usage breakdown: 15 production deploys = 225 credits, web requests 0.1, bandwidth 0.5, AI inference 0, compute 0. Total 225.6.
  • Concurrent builds: 0/1
  • Affected site: peppy-dieffenbachia-b3ad96
  • Deploys are made via the Netlify API from a GitHub Actions workflow. The first rejected deploy was around 18:30 UTC today; earlier deploys the same day went through normally.

This matches the known stale “credit usage exceeded” / operational-credits flag issue reported by several other Free plan accounts since July, where deploys are blocked despite credits being available.

Could you please reset the flag on my account so I can deploy again?

Thank you.

i’ve got the same issue
