Usage-based requests charges even with high-demand error

[zog06]

• Hello there, so the problem is every request I tried with my usage-based plan enabled account immediately gets charged even with ;

Sample request id : cdf9f329-8b66-488b-9e58-70e0745365b8

Yes, I also encountered this problem very frequently when I was using it, which once made it impossible for me to use it.

Me too. It has wasted a lot of my proxy resources. I just wanted to test if it worked, so I kept clicking “retry,” but it kept consuming my usage. If I weren’t a careful person, it would secretly deduct fees from me.

Same problem on Pro account

Even though its not that much high amounts of credits used since its discounted x0.5 but “try again” button shouldn’t be work like that surely

Yes, and when using Claude 4.0, it is particularly unstable. In addition to the situation you mentioned above, it also shows the situation as shown in the figure, indicating that there is a problem with the Claude provider, or there is an issue with the VPN. However, I have no problems using Claude 4 in other tools.

I have the same problem and I don’t know what to do. The worst thing is that even if the money is deducted, nothing is output.

Same problem. After reading all the requests in detail, I got a large number of requests that just appeared on my account and for which there is not even an explanation.

Failed requests still consume quota despite model connection error

Hmmm. I exported all the values from this table and here’s what I found: Total entries: 187 Sum of all requests: 57.5 Zero-value entries: 113 Errored, Not Charged: 77 But the dashboard claims 206 total requests used — that’s 3.5x more than the actual successful requests (57.5)! Even if I add up all logged requests (57.5 successful + 77 errored), it only totals 134.5 . That leaves 71.5 requests unaccounted for , plus 19 missing entries in the export. This suggests that either not all requests…

Just looking at the reported cost, that is 20 requests = 0.8 USD.

Here is a wiki about the Opus model in Max mode

Why does Claude Opus 4 use so many requests?

Hi, could you have a look at the Models page in Cursor Documentation? For example the usage of Claude 4 Opus in Max mode resulted in e.g. 23.8 requests charged = 23.8 x 0.04 (USD/Request) = 0.952 USD total Claude 4 Opus is a MAX model, that means it charges by amount of input, thinking and output tokens from API usage. This has changed with Cursor 0.50 from a cost per request and cost per tool call to a per token used pricing. It avoids charging for each edit or file read tool call as 200 su…

The point about errors is separate issue. @deanrie

After seeing this I’m asking for an official review of our API accounts. Do any of you people have any handle on what you’re doing?

[zog06]

Oh, with Opus its even way brutal
