Still persists, I literally have never seen worse error management. Registered, wasted about 5 hours in total trying to set everything up and try every single thing I could find in forums..

Same! Now I wonder where else to seek help. They are not responding through support at all for me.

happy to see I am not alone but at the same time wondering how much is the open ai value on the stock market ? no support, no feedback, my account got deleted at tier 3, no refund of MY 19$ yet, started from scratch and now hitting quota limit without even make a single call. Are you kidding me ?

I have credits in my account, but i cannot use API as i am getting error related to exceeded quota.

The image shows the OpenAI Playground interface with an error message stating that the user has exceeded their current quota and needs to check their plan and billing details. (Captioned by AI)

Yeah it is pretty much still ongoing. I see posts on this topic every few months going back years now.. just starting out this project with OpenAI API.. Great first impression.

This is my first time trying to buy and use Open AI credits, and the experience so far has been disastrous. Never expected this Open AI.
