Hi Guys

This is already possible (or should be). Just set a time limit (not a
recurring time limit) and they'll get the time limit once off, and then be
out of "time" for future free logins. That option will only apply to new
logins created in that group, so you'll need to manually set the existing
accounts to have a time limit.
