Original post body:

I’m on the Max 20 plan, and my entire 5-hour usage limit just got burned through in about 30 minutes.

This looks like the same usage/reset bug that has happened a few times already. Last time this happened, I don’t think we ever got the missing usage back either.

At this point I honestly can’t even remember when my last proper 5-hour reset was.

Is anyone else experiencing this again today? Did Anthropic acknowledge another issue with Max plan usage/reset limits?

Paying for Max 20 and hitting the 5-hour cap after ~30 minutes definitely doesn’t seem right.
