Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Deepseek removed from Cursor, but you can try other Models such as Gemini 3 Flash that cheap and have great capabilities

Thank you for your reply.

Unfortunately, I already have £20 to spend with Deepseek, so I was thinking of using it on Cursor… Is there really no way to use it?

Thank you.

so you bought from API Key? you can add that via API Key

Probably I met the similar problem.

I’m trying to use deepseek by manually adding the deepseek api keys in OpenAI API Key section, with model name deepseek-chat and base url https://api.deepseek.com/v1.

The strange thing is that for basic greetings or conversations like hi! what model are you, or explain CLT to me, etc., they all just worked fine. However, when I @ a file or let it digging the real, heavy work, it then fails, and returns the following issue:

I suspected if it is the time-out problem, but it still does not work even if I extended the limit manually. Kind of frustrating.

Thanks!
