Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hey, sorry you are having issues here, can you share a screenshot of the error you are seeing inside the editor, as that should provide us with some more context to help you out?

[Kevin_C]

Simply won’t let me run.

I’m quite worried right now as I just tried to set the limit to $40 (previously was $35 but always showed $0 used), and I can use the AI agent now, but this present another serious problem. For one, the usage limit isn’t showing up at dashboard so I have no idea how much I’ve sepnt. Second, based on my usage records, I absolutely did not use $35 worth of tokens, $6.80 to be exact.

I just hit 20 dollars, then I set a dollar, and it disappeared on the dashboard (It returned to 0$).

As I know, Cursor has turned to based on model API prices, and the deduction of 0.08 for two requests (claude-4-thinking) is quite strange.

You can opt out of the new pricing method

Any updates on the problem? I still can’t see usage-based spending in my dashboard.

This is a crazy bug.
I have just upped my $ limit after thinking that we couldnt use a & limit for the new pricing model.
When I upped it, its now works. So I have spent the last few days thinking we are getting much more use for a cheaper price now, when in reality Cursor just hasnt been showing me the $ value and now I’ve spent more money than I wanted to or thought.
Guess I’ll be looking for a cursor replacement..
