Upgraded To Pro And Get Hit With "Usage Limit" Error

I recently upgraded to the Pro tier and immediately got hit with the “You’ve hit your usage limit. Upgrade to Plus to continue using Codex” message as soon as I tried to submit a prompt. On ChatGPT website I can use my account just fine (realized I don’t see the Pro model there as well). What is the problem here?

have you tried logging out and back into the app?
i don’t know if that would help or not but i didn’t see that you might have tried…?

Welcome to the forum!

You can discuss Codex-related issues here, but the official place to report them is the OpenAI Codex GitHub Issues tab.

I checked for a closely related report and found:

That issue includes comments from etraut-openai with some useful context and guidance.

If it matches your situation, consider adding a :+1: reaction to increase visibility.
If not, it’s worth searching existing issues; if nothing aligns, open a new report with clear reproduction details.


Also take a look at

same problem here, should not happen right?

same issue here, is there any workaround or support?

same here, logging out does not help
