Google Geocoding API billing issue

Question

I required service of >2500 requests made on Google Geocoding API. For this, I have made a billing account by submitting my card information. However, when I access the API through my registered API Key, the code repeatedly runs into the OVER QUERY LIMIT error at around 2500 requests. Before reaching near 2500 requests, it ran smoothly. Why is this error occuring despite that billing has been enabled?

I have read about OVER QUERY LIMIT from link below and optimized the code accordingly by pausing after every request, so this might not be the issue https://developers.google.com/maps/faq#usagelimits

EDIT I am using the standard billing plan. Not the premium one
