Billing suspension and service restrictions
What happens to services when invoices stay overdue, including suspension and final review.
Billing suspension and service restrictions
If invoices stay overdue, Expanse Panel may restrict services on the team.
Suspension timeline
The standard billing timeline is:
- Invoice is generated before the due date.
- Invoice becomes overdue after the due date.
- A late fee may be added after 48 hours overdue.
- Services may be suspended after 7 days overdue.
- Suspended services may move into a recovery window after another 48 hours.
- Services that remain unpaid after that may move to final review before permanent removal.
What suspension means
Suspension means the service is restricted because billing is overdue. Depending on the service type, access to the server or resource may be paused.
Examples may include game servers, VPS, or bare metal services.
What the recovery window means
The recovery window is a short period after suspension where support may still be able to help restore the service after payment. Do not wait until this stage if the service is important.
What final review means
Final review means the service has moved beyond the normal recovery window. Permanent removal may happen after this point, and recovery may not be possible.
Emails and activity logs
Expanse may send billing suspension or final review emails to the team billing email or team owner email.
How to restore service
Pay overdue invoices as soon as possible from Billing → Invoices.
If a service is already suspended, pay the invoice and contact support if it does not recover automatically.
Suspension overrides
In some cases, support may place a temporary suspension override. This is not guaranteed and should not be relied on as a payment extension.
