Anybody else receive this message “The envelope allowance for the account has been exceeded” after using the app and signing documents for free for years? What gives? If DocuSign is going to be cheap-O’s and start charging for electronic signatures, any advice for better apps/websites to use that won’t charge?

Hello ​@AndyBNY1 ,

Thank you for reaching out here in Docusign Community.

There are reports that they received this error message but they can still send an envelope and we can confirm that this was just sent in error. 

If the error message causes you to be unable to send an envelope, I suggest that you open a case to verify your plan inclusions. 

You may follow the steps provided in the link below on how to open a case. 

Open a case in the Docusign Support Center

correct me if I’m wrong but only paid users can “start a case”?

EDIT: I tried starting a case and it said unable to login

Hello ​@AndyBNY1,

 

That’s is correct, you may try to use the bottom part of the page that allows you to open a case without logging in to your account.
