The github code space is telling me that I should adjust the billing issue

1

Hello campers!

I am following the relational database course. I completed many of the workshops and the first certification project using github codespace by following the instructions. Today when I try to start the Build a World Cup Database certification project it is showing me this “You seem to have a billing issue. Please adjust your billing settings to continue using codespaces.” alert message. What should I do? THANK YOU!!!

I guess you are using GitHub Codespaces. If so, it has usage limits, and once you hit the free quota (or if billing isn’t set up), GitHub will pause Codespaces and show that message.

**What you can do:

  1. Delete old Codespaces**
    Go to: https://github.com/codespaces
    Remove any Codespaces you’re not using.
    This frees up your free space and it will start working again.

  2. You can add a payment method (optional)
    Only if you want more hours.
    But for freeCodeCamp, you don’t need to.
    Just deleting old Codespaces is enough.

  3. Or use your computer instead of Codespaces
    You can do the project locally if Codespaces keeps giving issues.
