What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

260208.1016 (571)

What subscription do you have?

Plus

What issue are you seeing?

please remove the rate limit for plus plan as I have already paid for a year and I don't wanted to pay $200.00 every month as I don't have that kind of extra money

What steps can reproduce the bug?

You’re out of Codex messages
Your rate limit resets on 1:36 PM. To continue using Codex, add credits or upgrade to Pro today.

What is the expected behavior?

the rate limit should be removed complete for all paid plans for codex app only

and stop asking me to pay $200.00 every monthly

If you are hitting a rate limit with your plus plan but don't want to switch to a pro plan, you have the option of purchasing extra credits to cover your additional usage. See this documentation for details.

Good luck with this one! Unlimited tokens for $20 a month would be pretty incredible given how often others hit the weekly limit on the $200 plan..

Yeah, I hear you. Unlimited tokens for $0 would be even better! But there are real costs associated with hosting AI models.
