Manual Sync Request: Google Cloud Billing stuck on "Processing" for AI Studio

Hello,

My Google Cloud billing account is currently stuck in the “Processing” loop and I am unable to link it to Google AI Studio to unlock my rate limits.

  • Error displayed: “Setup Pending”, with “Your Google Cloud billing account is being processed. Processing time varies from a few moments to a few weeks.”

  • How it happened: The billing account is active on the Google Cloud side. When I wanted to link it to AI Studio, it progressed through to my bank authentication, which I backed out of to check pricing. But the system is now out of sync thinking it processed that step somehow, likely remaining in a loop.

Cloud Support advised that the AI Studio provisioning system needs a manual synchronization from the product team. Could someone please force the handshake for my account or reset the linking process so I can restart?

Thank you!

I’m experiencing the same issue. Did it get resolved for you?

Yes it got resolved, I’d say in about 8-9 hours. Billing is simply set up now without any further action from my end.
