Payment done but credits missing from my account

Hello, I’m sorry if this is not in the correct place, but this is the best I could find. I was charged when adding to my credit balance (showing up on both on my bank statement and billing history) but it did not provide me with the credits. This happened three times in a row, whenever I finish the transaction I got an error saying “sorry we could not redirect you to the right page” and redirecting me to the main page of the dashboard.

The AI chat support told me that it escaladed the issue and someone will contact me in a few days. A few days? This is urgent, please help.

Welcome to the community @florinrin!

Just to clarify, do you mean Codex credits or API credits? Depending on that, the topic needs to recategorized from Community to either Codex or API and also change the tag.

And contacting the Support is the right thing to do, since this is accountant/billing issue. From my experience, when supports says “they will get back on few days”, it´s usually faster than that.

I clicked on “add credits” from codex’s app.

Thank you, but “usually faster” is not making the cut for me now.

Thank you for clarifying!

I totally understand that “a few days” may not feel fast enough here.

That said, this is account/billing-specific, so users on the developer community forum can’t really investigate or fix it from here. Support is still the right path.

Maybe @OpenAI_Support can take a look at this topic and ask for your support case number, but I can’t guarantee that.

Hey florinrin, that's definitely frustrating.

Could you please share the support case number here? I'll take a look and see what can be done.

Thanks for stepping in, LarisaHaster.

Same issue here bought credits hours ago and I show 0

Even did a second purchase and still showing 0

Chatgpt codex app gave me the usage message, i added $10 worth of credits after clicking the “add credits” button and then a red pop up said said the purchase went through but they are having trouble routing it to the right workspace. the workspace i the chatgpt/codex app on my mac. The credits are not appearing in my Codex Usage Dashboard and the mac app still says I’m out of usage. it is the right email

i Have simillar problem, was using teh codex and folloed teh add credits fow from teh codex app, it charged my card but teh credits are nowere to be seen.. still at 0, can this be fixed?

Same here paid hours ago no credits showing.

Even paid a second time and my account shows paid. This app is great but also a rip off .

Update they did update mine now

Just happened to me as well!!

Same thing happend to me as well. I NEED HELP NOW!

Same here — I paid twice, but nothing is showing up.

I have bought $40 in credits a its taken the money out of my account but never gave me the credits.

Same here . 1h ago . Whats going on ???

Same happened to me around 11am CST today. My payment took forever to process so I resubmitted. Ended up spending $80 when I only meant to spend $20.

Also, my case was escalated but I never received a confirmation email so I have no clue what my case # is.


Looks like there may be system problems contributing to the issues raised here.

mine is Case Number: 11211357, ridiculously it even suggested canceling my account and give me back 5$ because its prorated to teh 15th when my account re charges.. but this extra charge is no were to be added, though it shows in the invoices…
