Confusion Regarding Ultra Plan API Value - Hit Rate Limit at $250 of $400 Promised Value

Hello Cursor Team and community,

I’m writing to seek some clarification regarding the API usage on the Ultra plan.

I recently subscribed to the Ultra plan for $200/month, and a primary reason for choosing this tier was the advertised value of receiving “at least $400 worth of API usage.

Agreed paid $200 given the advertising of at least $400 worth of API usage. Would be good to have some stability and clarify regarding the pricing

hi @pnolgonez @dflet this is just a display issue, you would still receive over $400 in usage. We are adjusting the display

I received about $770 worth of tokens after which I was told that I have hit the usage limits. And by some magic I am receiving the slow version of GPT-5. So when they say they do their best in this regard, they really do their best.

@sidscrazy GPT-5 may receive a huge amount of requests as its the newest model, therefore the performance may be somewhat less than optimal.
