I am using the $300 Google Cloud credit as the first-time customer when I first set up my AI Studio as a paid account. According to AI Studio and Google Cloud pages, my account is paid. However, I constantly run into 429 error with gemini-2.0-flash even though my usage is no where near the 2000 RPM that they advertise. I use max 100 requests/limit and the prompts are usually pretty short (total token count is no where near the 4m limit as well).
Can anyone help with this? We are planning to use Gemini in production but these 429 errors are so frustrating. I wonder whether it is because I am still using the free credit?
