Its a limit for monthy spending that your allowed. If you go over you get temporaily shut off until you bring your bill under the spending limit. Alot of new customers that require deposits get that. After you've been a customer in good payment history you get it removed in about 8-11 months. It usually gets removed when they give you back your deposit. Also you can put one on there yourself just so you know you dont go over for data access and such.

i was mad, cause when i called about it they said i could have it removed if i had perfect history for the last 12 months. and since thats the first suspend i ever had because i went over, it eliminated me!

Talk to a rep in a store if they're nice then can get it done for you. Just have them re-run your credit that usually works.
