I’ve been using Cursor for about 25 days, and I want to say that I am very satisfied. First, I started with the free trial, then I used the 15-day pro pre-trial, and after that, the $20 plan. I worked for 10 hours in one day and burned through $10 worth of tokens. I wrote the details here. I’m just leaving a screenshot here.
Anyway, I’m not going to complain about Cursor’s pricing policy or how expensive it is. Maybe it’s not really expensive. After all, we expect Cursor to finish a job in 2 days that we couldn’t do in 10 months.
The thing I want to discuss is unauthorized use. Now, on a webmaster forum, a guy found a system where he uses a credit card with a low limit so that Cursor can’t charge it. And then he shamelessly asked a question: “I have the Pro version and I selected high speed, so why is it running slow?”
I think the Cursor employees should focus on this first. Of course, if 10,000 users a day did what this guy is doing, it would seem expensive to people like us who pay. Because there is a lot of unauthorized use, and right now they can’t prevent it—this is clearly visible.
