 * Hello, dear support team,
 * I have problem verifying the Google map API key in Wp Google Map plugin. Could
   you please let me know regarding the issue. I have created a valid key tested
   in another related plugin it works there but here does not work.
 * The Problem is: **invalid API Key**, sometimes it says **enable billing **details
   but i did it.
