I've always wondered how these types of "waived" accounts are coded in the backend. Are there flags in a table (i.e. first class support) or is it hacked together with duct tape? Seems like OVH is using the latter solution.

Sounds like 'prepaid balance transferred by accounting and manually entered into DB', which is then consumed slowly until outage.
