Billing glitch and 429 errors

The title days it all. Just now (less than an hour ago) there was a billing glitch - my bill was showing about 10x the limit, and I got the email about breaching my limit, so the requests were rejected, etc.

Then the bogus bill was gone, literally disappeared, but the 429 errors saying I reached the limit are still there!

My service is completley bricked this is a really bad bug, but I worry it’s not affecting everyone so they may not be paying attention to it

i think it might be connected to model updates that was around this date

I encountered a similar issue. My temporary solution was to add more funds to increase the limit.

It suddenly appeared to me that I had exceeded the limit and I got an absurd amount that I have never reached, then the correct thing appeared but I still get error 429.

now its working, but i added funds

Yeah, add fund and wait tech team update.


Automatic $10 was added because I had stayed at -1 when there was still $5 left. Now all 15 appear but the error 429 continues

You should add more funds to ensure that the amount is greater than what you’ve already used (or limit by tier).
Or ideally, with $100, you’ll reach tier 3.

Quite often in the last couple of months we are getting 429 errors, including today, but we are now where near the limits of our tier!

This is massively disrupting us!
