“You answer like a bot or a fanboy. Man, Go tier has gotten useless because you now get a product that works worse. Many users are reporting this problem here and I got here after many days suffering a degraded service. This is not about throwing them more money, it's about you…”
“Just encountered this limit on Plus. Makes no sense. The issue isn’t that I need five things running constantly. Some scheduled tasks might run once a week, once a month, or only check for something occasionally. Yet a monthly reminder apparently consumes the same scarce slot as…”
“Going to revisit this in a few years time when AI compute is dirt cheap and the market has long crashed, and I'll point and laugh at you for dropping several Gs on overpriced hardware at the peak of the bubble. "Anyone not moving now will be left behind" LMAO.”
Users report that their weekly usage limits on ChatGPT's Pro plan are being halved after each reset, despite no changes in their usage patterns. Complaints highlight lack of transparency and accountability from the platform.

“Just got the email from OpenAI, and this is honestly a pretty outrageous move. Starting October 30, the $200/month Pro plan gets its included usage cut from: 20× Plus → 10× Plus 200 GPT-6 Pro messages/week → 100 The price stays exactly the same. At the same time, OpenAI is launching a new $500/month Pro 500 plan with 25× usage and Ultrafast generation. So existing customers paying $200 every month are effectively getting their included usage cut in half, while the higher limits are moved behind”
“Yeah, I was raging, but Sol 6.1 is efficient and quite decent. It’s probably too soon to make a desicion.”
“You can literally hire a person for entire month in this much in third world countries.”
“there's supposedly no limit in the Chat mode(chatgpt gurus correct me, where are you), there is a limit on image gen but Codex/Work limits are microscopic and you need Pro 20x to even work normally”
“I literally forced to go to Grok because of that submitted by /u/absorbere [link] [comments]”
“Dude, of course. It's their new frontier model which consumes a lot of tokens. Either Sol is enough for you or you have to switch to pro plan. Even in my 20x pro plan, it takes a LOT of my weekly usage limit. It's supposed to help for the hardest of the hardest tasks”
“[ChatGPT] ★ 1/5 (v1.2026.230) — Im paying $20 dollars just to get usage limits what the heck hell no. In this economy Is idiotic for them to think people are willing to pay 20 dollars just to get limited usage. Might well stick to the free version cause I dont se the difference.”
“You answer like a bot or a fanboy. Man, Go tier has gotten useless because you now get a product that works worse. Many users are reporting this problem here and I got here after many days suffering a degraded service. This is not about throwing them more money, it's about you get less while paying the same. Some months a year I need to use bigger models or more reasoning but rest of the time I just need something more simple. 5.5 instant was good enough and 5.6 Luna for Go tier doesn't”
“I’m in the Pro personal plan and can no longer share my GPTs which I send to students to learn about AI. All of a sudden they seem to not allow sharing on the person plan. What happened? submitted by /u/Public-Wish-2982 [link] [comments]”
“Just encountered this limit on Plus. Makes no sense. The issue isn’t that I need five things running constantly. Some scheduled tasks might run once a week, once a month, or only check for something occasionally. Yet a monthly reminder apparently consumes the same scarce slot as a daily recurring task. That makes the feature weirdly self-defeating: the more useful you find scheduled tasks, the faster you hit an arbitrary ceiling. Limiting users to five active task definitions total , regardless”
“I started a Sol High task in Codex this morning. 25m into the task and I have used 10% of my Codex allocation. ChatGPT Pro. This isn't fixed. Unless their business model is providing 2x 30m sessions a day for $20/month.”
“Is anybody experiencing some weird stuff happening with weekly limits? Or I don't get it? I had one refresh in last 2 days I think, whilst my reset was scheduled for later this week? Any explanation? submitted by /u/dapsuaz [link] [comments]”
“What the fuck is going on? The lim1t after the reset 12 hours ago is a joke. A single 5.6 sol ultra planning task reduced my Pro plan lim1t by 15% WEEKLY limit (I've work that justifies this). And they're censoring our complains and woes by deleting all the threads and 'summarizing' them into a megathread nobody will read. This is ridiculous. They're continuously reducing our lim1ts despite everyone clearly complaining about this! There's no accountability or even any ack”
