Received a “moved to a lower tier” email, but the account is still on Tier 3

Hi everyone,

I received an email saying that my Gemini API billing account had been “moved to a lower tier” and adjusted to paid Tier 3.

However, I understood Tier 3 to be the highest paid tier currently available, so I’m confused about what was actually downgraded.

Has anyone else received this email? Does it mean that the rate limits or monthly spending cap were reduced while the account still remains labeled as Tier 3?

Any clarification would be appreciated. Thanks!
