"Selected model is at capacity" error persists on Pro account

ChatGPT Bugs
1

I am consistently encountering the error “Selected model is at capacity.
Please try a different model.” when using ChatGPT.

  • Account type: Pro
  • Models affected: All models (including GPT-4o, GPT-4.1, and others)
  • Frequency: Persistent / very frequent
  • Duration: The issue has been ongoing for over 12 hours without recovery
  • Date/Time: Sep 17, 2026
  • Screenshot attached below.

The error appears with a countdown retry timer (e.g., “23秒后重试”),
but retrying does not resolve it. Switching to a different model also
does not help — the capacity error occurs across all available models.

This has been blocking my workflow for 12+ hours. Please advise.

I have no idea :smiling_face_with_tear: . I’m still waiting on pins and needles, hoping it’ll be fixed after I get some sleep.
