+### Switching payment service provider
+
+After switching payment service provider, there may be `Spree::PaymentMethod` 
+records referencing a `type` class that does not exist anymore.
+
+If you cannot delete these records, you can deactivate them running 
+`rake payment_method:deactivate_unsupported_payment_methods`. 
+This way, their `type` will be set to `Spree::PaymentMethod`, allowing for 
+records retrieval without errors.
