Submission Limits is not working

    Being able to set a submissions limit is great, but it doesn't work perfectly. My form, to register a limited number of people for an event, asks users to pay a fee via PayPal and they're directed to PP after they click Submit. It seems that JotForm counts toward the submissions limit any instance that the form is filled out and the user clicks Submit -- regardless of whether they completed the PP transaction. For example, I embedded the form on a web page, so when someone reported an issue I sent test submissions sans PayPal payment from four different browsers. What makes this even more frustrating is that after resolving the user's issue, I deleted my test submissions from the "incomplete payment" area, thinking that would ensure they wouldn't be counted toward the limit.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting us.

    Incomplete submission is not counted as submissions it will only count when you manually complete the form so that shouldn't affect your submissions limit. I just tested the form and it does works fine on my end the limit does not count when payment is incomplete. Can you please give it a try and let us know if the issue still persist? May we also ask for your website URL where your form is embedded.

    Hello a2derbydimes,

    Upon checking your account, I found that your account is over limit. Your forms are currently disabled and that is the reason you are unable to submit your form. Only 10 payment submissions are allowed in free account and you have already received 12.

    I did check your form's submission records and found that apart from incomplete payments you have 12 payment submissions in your form #40486713374155.

    To enable your forms again, you will have to upgrade your account or wait for the first day of next month when the submission limits are reset.

    Thank you!

    Thank you for the guidance! That does the trick. I'm fairly certain we've used Jotform for situations where we've had many more submissions than this use case but didn't need to upgrade, so I guess I need to re-familiarize myself with your terms.

    At any rate, I really appreciate your guys' speedy support, and the robust functionality that your forms offer (generally) at no charge!
