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

26.609.41114

What subscription do you have?

Pro 5x

What platform is your computer?

Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26200.0 x64

What issue are you seeing?

I received a complimentary reset allowance, along with an offer to earn additional resets by inviting up to three friends. After using the free reset, I sent invitation links to three friends. They confirmed that they had registered new accounts and sent their first messages, but when I checked, the reset button for my Codex had mysteriously vanished! It simply disappeared—I can't find it anywhere. Why?

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Feedback ID: no-active-thread-019ec955-2dee-7ae3-92cd-5a76b4c2095b

What is the expected behavior?

Clearly, you should investigate whether this was an accidental bug or the result of a triggered censorship mechanism; if it was the former, you should restore my three reset allowances, and if the latter, you should inform me of the reason.

Additional information

I have reviewed the questions raised by other people who may be relevant, regarding
#28028 This question is unrelated to mine.
#28110 This issue is fundamentally different from mine; his problem was likely that he wasn't included in the group eligible to send invitations. My issue, however, is that I was eligible to send invitations and had received the allotted quota, but it disappeared overnight.

This is not an isolated case; many people have lost their eligibility to send invitations after having already qualified and sent them. I believe this is an issue on OpenAI's end that needs to be fixed.
