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:

  1. Invoice is generated before the due date.
  2. Invoice becomes overdue after the due date.
  3. A late fee may be added after 48 hours overdue.
  4. Services may be suspended after 7 days overdue.
  5. Suspended services may move into a recovery window after another 48 hours.
  6. 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 BillingInvoices.

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.
