GAE over quota with billing enabled

Question

I deployed my GAE app as module. appengine-web.xml is as below.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<appengine-web-app xmlns="http://appengine.google.com/ns/1.0">
  <application>myapp</application>
  <version>200</version>
  <system-properties>
    <property name="java.util.logging.config.file" value="WEB-INF/logging.properties"/>
  </system-properties>
  <use-google-connector-j>true</use-google-connector-j>
  <module>batch</module>
  <instance-class>B1</instance-class>
  <basic-scaling>
  <max-instances>1</max-instances>
  <idle-timeout>10m</idle-timeout>
  </basic-scaling>
</appengine-web-app>

But my app returns over quota error.

Response:

Over Quota
This application is temporarily over its serving quota. Please try again later.

Actually, free usage of "Backend Instance Hours" (9.00 of 9.00 Instance Hours) is exhausted, but billing status of my app is enabled.

Why I got over quota error? And how to avoid it?

Have you looked at the budget settings in app engine dashboard? — Bemmu
Billing Status: Enabled. Maximum Daily Budget is "$0.00". Does this mean unlimitted? or billing disabled? — N.F.

Your Outgoing Bandwidth quota must have been exhausted which is 1 GB per day.

You may increase Daily spending limit from $0.00 to few dollars.

Your quota is exhausted because you may be serving image/video from Blobstore, which is part the part of App Engine. You can use Cloud Storage instead to avoid such over quota issue.
