What issue are you seeing?

Hello, I have an active ChatGPT Plus plan, but in Codex CLI my account is being treated like a Free plan. Because of that, my usage limits run out very quickly, which does not match the plan I’m paying for. Please check my account status and fix this issue as soon as possible. I should have the correct access and limits associated with my Plus subscription. This looks like a billing or account-sync bug. Please investigate and resolve it.
