BILLER_ACCOUNT_LOCKED
409invalid_requestThe biller locked the account.
Cause
The biller locked the end-user’s account after too many sign-in attempts. The stored credential is correct and was not revoked — the lock is a biller-side account state, not a wrong password.
How to fix it
The user must clear the lock at the biller (reset their password, or contact biller support), then reconnect. Retrying with the same credentials will not clear the lock.
