As a loyal ChatGPT Plus subscriber paying $20/month, I’m appalled by the recent degradation in service quality. Despite my commitment as a paying user, my experience has been sabotaged by what appears to be OpenAI’s arbitrary restrictions tied to IP or environmental factors. This is unacceptable.
Without warning, my access to GPT-4’s full capabilities vanished. Responses became sluggish, generic, and devoid of the depth I paid for. After troubleshooting, I suspect OpenAI flagged my account due to IP irregularities (e.g., VPN use for privacy) or device fingerprints. But why punish paying users instead of clarifying triggers?
Look at competitors like DeepSeek and Gemini—none of them resort to such underhanded tactics. OpenAI, you’re trying to have it both ways: taking money from users while failing to deliver the promised service. This hypocritical behavior is unacceptable. You can’t claim to provide a premium product while actively undermining the experience of paying customers
