Why Is My ScreenCloud Account Suspended, and How Can I Reactivate It?

Account suspended or seeing 'Reactivate Subscription'? Learn why it happens and how to restore access to your screens

If your account is suspended or showing a Reactivate Subscription message, this is usually caused by an unresolved payment issue. This article explains the most common reasons for suspension and walks you through how to reactivate your account.

Common reasons for account suspension

Unpaid invoices

If your account has one or more overdue invoices, your subscription may lapse and your screens will be suspended until the outstanding balance is cleared.

Trial expiration

If your trial period has ended and no payment details have been added to your account, your subscription will not renew and your screens will be deactivated.

How to reactivate your account

Follow these steps to resolve the suspension and restore access to your screens:

  1. Log in to your ScreenCloud account

  2. Go to Settings β†’ Billing

  3. Review any outstanding invoices and complete any due payments

  4. Add a valid payment method β€” ensure it is not region-blocked (ScreenCloud is based in UK) and has sufficient funds

  5. If your trial has expired, adding a valid payment method will reactivate your subscription

  6. Confirm your subscription status has updated before checking your screens

Once payment is confirmed, your account and screens will be reactivated automatically. In most cases this happens immediately, though it may occasionally take a few minutes to reflect across your devices.

You must have Admin or Owner level access to update payment details on the account.

If your newly added payment method isn't working

If adding a new payment method does not resolve the issue, our support team can manually push the invoice to process payment from your newly added method. In some cases, they can also send a dedicated Update Payment Method email to the billing address on file, which can help override issues associated with a previously connected payment method.

To request either of these, please reach out to the ScreenCloud support team.

Still seeing the suspended message?

If your account remains suspended after updating your billing details, try refreshing your browser or logging out and back in. If the issue persists, contact our support team and we'll be happy to look into this for you and get your account activated again.
