It seems excessive to allow USD 14k spend on a newly created account, or and account with no prior big spend. If I was Google, I would not allow it without explicitly raising limits or increasing quotas. Otherwise there is a big chance there customer can not pay and they just lost that resource – unless you don't really have an expense for that resource and you use predatory pricing.

It's like predatory telcos who charge you "roaming data fees: $4,500, but took bad you didn't check your online bill before"
