# Account & Access

> Fix a NexLev plan that's paid but still locked: signed in to the wrong account on the dashboard, in the Chrome extension, in NexLev MCP, or with an API key.

You've paid for a plan, but NexLev still shows Free, No Access or a lock icon. Almost always, you're signed in to a **different NexLev account** from the one that paid.

> **Tip:** **Not sure which account paid?** Open your Stripe receipt email and note the
> address it was sent to. That's the NexLev account your plan belongs to.
