Google Places AutoComplete on iOS - Can't Load Search Results - Try Again

I am posting this here because I don't know where else to post this. Today, our application is no longer returning results for Google Places API. We are seeing the request go through on the Google Developers Console, but all phones are returning no results.

This number is climbing for today and each one of these users are stuck in the login / onboarding flow of my app.

Here is an example flow of what I am seeing on all iPhones we are testing and receiving the same from our users.

They search for their location. They might or might not see some autocomplete options:

Any and all help is appreciated. Any hints on who to contact or what I should do is important.

Does google have a services page or are other apps experiencing this issue? If so, which apps?

This was the same issue to me.

According to new rules by Google we have to compulsory setup a Billing Account.

Maybe you have something left with the payment setup. Check the status for your Billing account, it might be closed. Complete the pending stuff and this won't an issue anymore. Hope that helps you!
