20 Million+ Codex users: A free banked reset for everyone

This was just recently announced.
Let’s go build something great!

8 hours in , how serious are they about this really? its a matter of branding, they need to recon this is an issue and fix. if its a brand move tell us all, so can be prepared. there is a reason we are not using claude, i truly dont think they have the same bandwidth as openai. so tell us the issue so we all can be better prepared. thats all @VeitB all we need is response. we are loyal to openai, they need to show us there true appreciation back. dont leave us in the dark

Very happy to be getting one, but I don’t see one yet #waiting.

It’s 1pm in San Francisco as I’m writing this, so there are still a few more hours “in the day.”

But I’ll take the feedback and make that clearer next time around.

As far as I can tell, the first users have already received theirs.

need to be on the insiders list lol, cause it can take few hours to get to 20th million users. :grinning_face:

What’s the point of having just one reset when the limits run out so quickly anyway?

Now, as a pre-emptive question as we have been missed on the last few resets, what about Business users? Would love to see that we aren’t missed again on a milestone.

Perhaps you should add the time zone information for the message being sent to the forum (this will make things easier, as I see this isn’t the first time you’ve said you’re sending a message from SF).

:Local time zone (time of the person reading the message) - Time zone of the person who sent the message GMT-7:

we are global community, time zones shouldn’t hinder communication
however some good new reset are finally kicking in but still draining way too quickly

got my reset and all I did was use it on general maintenance at 5.5 high and standard. 6 Hours in 100% gone to 0

While the team is working to resolve some issues around rate limits depleting too fast there’s also a new reset incoming.
This time the time when it happens is also part of the announcement. It will be 2026-08-24T21:00:00Z

Yahoo! A free banked reset could help more users experiment with Codex without worrying about wasting their first attempt.

how about next reset? 30 Million users?
