When I try to search at Place Autocomplete I got Can't Load Search Results and the logs say

"Error while autocompleting: OVER_QUERY_LIMIT"

I have enabled https://console.cloud.google.com/ and API key works well.

enter image description here

Java Code

    String apiKey = "MY API KEY";
    private RadioGroup mRadioGroup;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_costumer_map);
        // Obtain the SupportMapFragment and get notified when the map is ready to be used.
        mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
                .findFragmentById(R.id.map);

        Places.initialize(getApplicationContext(), apiKey);

        PlacesClient placesClient = Places.createClient(this);
          // Initialize the AutocompleteSupportFragment.
        AutocompleteSupportFragment autocompleteFragment = (AutocompleteSupportFragment)
                getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.place_autocomplete_fragment);

        // Specify the types of place data to return.
        autocompleteFragment.setPlaceFields(Arrays.asList(Place.Field.ID, Place.Field.NAME));

        // Set up a PlaceSelectionListener to handle the response.
        autocompleteFragment.setOnPlaceSelectedListener(new PlaceSelectionListener() {
            @Override
            public void onPlaceSelected(Place place) {
                destination = place.getName().toString();
                destinationLatLng = place.getLatLng();

                Log.i(TAG, "Place: " + place.getName() + ", " + place.getId());
            }

            @Override
            public void onError(Status status) {
                Log.e(TAG, "onError: " + status);
            }
        });

XML Code

       <android.support.v7.widget.CardView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@+id/toolbar"
        android:layout_margin="20sp">

        <fragment
            android:id="@+id/place_autocomplete_fragment"
            android:name="com.google.android.libraries.places.widget.AutocompleteSupportFragment"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

    </android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

You are getting OVER_QUERY_LIMIT message because you have not enabled billing for your project in developers console.

To use the Places SDK for Android, you must include an API key with all API requests and you must enable billing on each of your projects.

Check this link for more info and pricing.

SKU: Basic Data

Fields in the Basic category are included in the base cost of the Places request, and do not result in any additional charge. The Basic Data SKU is triggered when any of these fields are requested: ADDRESS, ID, LAT_LNG, NAME, OPENING_HOURS, PHOTO_METADATAS, PLUS_CODE, TYPES, USER_RATINGS_TOTAL, VIEWPORT.

You can check pricing and other SKUs in the same link given above.
