Why did you take my token but give no response?
I never imagined I'd need to post this in a public forum, but I really think it's unreasonable, about Anthropic.
POV: I'm just a Pro subscriber. While I use other paid AI tools, my main focus is on Claude.
Before today, I silently tolerated my opinions on usages' calculation methods, but while they're heavily reporting on their collaborations and how much computing power they've increased for users, I'm experiencing the complete opposite.
I'm just a beginner using Claude code, with absolutely no programming background. 99% of my conversations are on the Claude app on Mac or Chrome.
Today at 1:30 PM, after confirming that the system had reset my entirely usages session, I sent a message asking the agent to analyze it. After about two minutes of calculation, it popped up: "I've reached my limit in the current session, and without giving me any reply," ordering me to come back in five hours.
Oh, okay. Five hours later, at 18:40, when I sent messages again to the same agent (Sonnet 4.6) and gave a brief prompt to the advisor agent (4.7 Opus), the screen looked like the image you see—completely unable to respond to any messages.
Even recapping the conversation was impossible; I had to start all over again.
If Anthropic intends to limit user usage like this, why not clearly define the standards from the beginning?
I've already used up all the session's tokens without receiving any response. Five hours later, I have to spend the same number of tokens again, with no guarantee of a real reply. It's like paying for a product, only to be told it's sold out and to come back in five hours, only to have to pay the same amount again without knowing if I'll even receive the product.
English is my fourth language. If there is anything I have not expressed clearly, please feel free to give me any suggestions. Thank you everyone, and thank you for taking the time to read this.
