The New Pricing Model for Pro makes 0 sense - Make a new one

I understand putting a limit in Claude 4.0 and 3.7 is logical. But reaching a limit and putting API pricing on all models makes 0 sense. All other AI platforms give us as many prompts to their older models as we reasonably want.

We should just have a limit on each recent LLM models.
Reaching a limit and locking all the models including the old ones doesn’t make sense at all, and you expect us to go with it when we have had the old models available to us all this time without limit.

This is a huge downgrade, and it is affecting the community.
Please review the Pricing Model and create something reasonable. We can incorporate elements from both the old and new pricing models, such as making older LLM models always available and implementing API pricing when the limit is reached on the more recent ones.

Thank you,
António

Yeah This has turned into an absolutely unusable mess. Every single time “auto” touches my code I spend the rest of the day trying to fix it. We had a nice thing and now its just ■■■■.

Honestly, Cursor is becoming unusable.

The old 500 requests/month for any model was fair. Now it’s 225 for top model? Seriously?

Add the hidden API markup and lack of clear limits — and it just feels like we’re being milked. Loved Cursor before, but this pricing model is killing it.

Hope they rethink it before more users leave.

I asked them to roll back to Old Pricing, and they did it. But I’m considering starting to use the Kilo Code extension on VS Code connected to the Claude Code CLI. Seems like the best of both worlds.

I’ve been using Cursor for a long time and have been very satisfied with it. I’ve recommended it to many friends and colleagues.

However, I was quite disappointed today when I received a notification that I’ve reached my usage limit, even though I was on a business trip for nearly two weeks last month and barely used it.

I’m now considering canceling my subscription and looking for a more reasonable alternative.

Never understood why you’d want russian roulette mode as a back up.

One bad response sends you backwards and gives you a slew of new bugs to play with, so you rewind and it was a waste of time. Try again, maybe it works, maybe it wastes more time. They read “software dev tool” and thought “slot machine” I guess.
