Google speech-to-text api request getting denied because "the billing account for the owning project is disabled in state closed"

Question

This is very weird.

Here's the error I'm getting:

return Object.assign(new Error(message), status);
                     ^

Error: 7 PERMISSION_DENIED: The billing account for the owning project is disabled in state closed

  details: 'The billing account for the owning project is disabled in state closed',
  metadata: Metadata { internalRepr: Map(0) {}, options: {} },
  note: 'Exception occurred in retry method that was not classified as transient'
}

I have tried contacting support and they have insisted that my billing account is set correctly and enabled.

I'd appreciate any help! Thanks in advance!
