Concern Regarding Access to Sora Video Generation Feature

Hello OpenAI Team and Community,

I hope you’re doing well.

I recently subscribed to the ChatGPT Plus plan ($20/month) specifically because I was interested in accessing the Sora video generation feature. Unfortunately, after subscribing, I was unable to access Sora at all, even though my payment was successfully processed.

A few days later, I was finally able to log in, but I was surprised and disappointed to receive the following message when trying to generate a video:

“Video generation is temporarily disabled for new accounts.”

This limitation was not mentioned anywhere during the upgrade process, nor was I warned about it before subscribing. I feel quite misled, and I’m very concerned and disappointed.

Could you please clarify the following:

  • When will Sora video generation be enabled for new accounts?
  • Will this feature be available for me soon?

Thank you for your time and support. I look forward to your response.

Best regards,
