Credit limit reached

credit_cap_reached

This would take your next bill over what your credit pays a month.

What this means​

The account's credit grant pays its bill up to a monthly amount, and this change would take the next bill over it. There is no card on file for the rest.

How to fix it​

Add a card, or remove something, to go further.

How it appears in the response​
