I have received a credit limit notification from seethelight, what should I do?

seethelight apply a credit limit to all our customer's accounts, in order to protect you from high call charges due to phone-based scams. If you reach or exceed this credit limit your phoneline may be suspended to prevent you incurring any further call charges.

You will still be able to receive incoming calls and your access to contact the emergency services will not be restricted. You can view a summary of your unbilled calls in the Your Calls section of your seethelight account.

If you need to use your phoneline, you can make a payment to reactivate your services. Please be aware that your services may be suspended again, if you exceed your credit limit before your next bill is produced.
