Help / How to suspend and unsuspend user accounts

Suspending user accounts

Suspending a user account will temporarily block the user from accessing their quizzes and data.

You can still access their data from your Admin or Trainer reports, but the user cannot access their FlexiQuiz account. You can suspend and unsuspend user accounts at any time.

If you downgrade your FlexiQuiz plan, the system automatically suspends any users that exceed the limits linked to your new plan. You can unsuspend the users when you upgrade again.
