Claude Opus 4.7 burned 80% of my Copilot Pro+ allowance in about 2 days
I’m a Copilot Pro+ yearly customer, and Claude Opus 4.7 consumed 1,200 of my 1,500 included premium requests — basically 80% of my monthly allowance — in about 2 days.
To be clear, I wasn’t billed extra. The billed amount is $0. My issue is that the 15x multiplier can burn through a paid allowance very quickly if you miss the model setting or forget to switch back.
I contacted GitHub Support 4 days ago and still haven’t received a response. Since the quota resets on June 1, a delayed response basically means I lose the value of the allowance I already paid for this cycle.
I can’t prove GitHub’s internal intent, but the design outcome is obvious. The product benefits when users miss the 15x multiplier. “It was documented” is not enough when one model choice can consume most of a monthly Pro+ allowance.
A 15x usage impact should be impossible to miss at the point of use. Right now, this feels like deceptive design or at least a dark-pattern-like experience.
Has anyone else dealt with this?
