We’re a small team on a newly purchased ChatGPT Business plan (2 ChatGPT seats), using Codex via the desktop app. We’re hitting a workspace-wide block that doesn’t match the usage we’re seeing, and support guidance has been contradictory, so I’m hoping someone from the team or community can help clarify.
What’s happening
- With very light use, our whole workspace gets blocked: “You’ve reached your workspace credit limit / Your workspace is out of credits,” sometimes cutting off a task mid-run.
-
- This has now happened on two consecutive days.
- The numbers (whole workspace, both users combined)
-
- June 2: 37 Codex turns total
-
- June 3: 13 Codex turns total (and still blocked)
-
- Workspace usage export both days: credit_total = 0, on_demand_credits = 0
-
- Billing: 2/2 ChatGPT seats (“ChatGPT and Codex, $25/mo”), 0 Codex seats, credits balance 0, no monthly usage allocations set.
- Why this is confusing
-
- Support told us Business has a fixed daily Codex quota where only successful turns count and auto-review doesn’t — but if so, 13 successful turns exhausting the entire workspace’s daily allowance seems far too low and looks like a misprovisioned quota or a bug.
-
- Our admin billing page shows a banner: “Add credits so members can keep working without interruption” — which contradicts support telling us that adding credits does NOT raise the quota.
-
- The usage dashboard shows 0 credits/0 tokens consumed even while the limit is being enforced.
- Questions
-
- What is the actual included Codex allowance per ChatGPT seat on Business (in requests/turns per rolling window)?
-
- Is ~13 turns/day exhausting a Business workspace expected, or a misconfiguration/bug?
-
- Does adding credits actually restore Codex access on Business, or not? (The banner and support guidance conflict.)
-
- Has anyone else on Business seen the dashboard show 0 usage while being blocked as “out of credits”?
- Thanks in advance — any definitive answer on the included Codex quota for Business ChatGPT seats would help a lot.
