It is completely unfair for users to waste a lot of fast credits unnecessarily just because of ridiculous reasons like network errors, layout errors, or simply because the agent starts hallucinating and forces them into a cycle of solving the same issue. We should have full control over whether we use free or fast credits at any time. I urge the entire forum to support the addition of this feature.
Moreover, every time an LLM update rolls out or Cursor gets updated (which we are experiencing deeply in Sonnet 3.7 and Cursor 0.46), why should we bear the financial burden of this integration process? Half of the fast credits used in the screenshot are wasted. Please add this feature and compensate users with extra credits for this month!
I second this. There needs to be some user customizable guardrails not to mention when your api is overloaded instead of using a premium usage and failing just fail. I have burned at least 100 usages just on api failures with anthropic from what i have been able to track.
It’s been hanging in there forever and has stolen my fast credits.
It really hard to show my disappointment here about the credit calculation. I’m very, very careful about how to use CURSOR effectively and efficiently to save my credits. Then suddenly, just because of a disconnection to anthropic, failed to connect to server… It deducts my credits without any results??
I would like to present my discontent as well with regard to this issue, I had many fast-credits burned unnecessary because of the way cursor counts credits while returning no result or erroneous results.
I just got a response back from support and they refunded some money and said it should be fixed. If you havent sent in a email to support make sure to do so. I dont think the support team is actively watching the forum. It took several days before I got a response via email about this.
