Claude Code users have encountered restrictive usage limits without prior notice, primarily impacting subscribers on the $200-a-month plan. Users experience messages indicating their usage limit has been reached, leading to confusion about their subscription status. Complaints about inaccurate usage tracking have surfaced, with a case where a user feels impeded in project advancement. Anthropic's representative acknowledged the issues but provided limited information, while reports of overload errors within their API network compounded frustrations. Overall, users are seeking clearer guidelines and resolutions from Anthropic regarding the usage restrictions.
"Your tracking of usage limits has changed and is no longer accurate," one user complained. "There is no way in the 30 minutes of a few requests I have hit the 900 messages."
The change has been alarming for users, who received no advance notice of the changes and no guidance on what to expect going forward.
One user, who asked not to be identified, said it has been impossible to advance his project since the usage limits came into effect. "It just stopped the ability to make progress," the user told TechCrunch.
Many API users reported overload errors during the same period, and the company's status page shows six separate issues during the past four days.
