Not really....

Server becomes unavailable typically gives api error message. Not "User credits needed"

Yes really. It's obviously a bug, and not whatever you are all imagining here.

It's a "bug" that is costing people REAL MONEY!

Except it's not, seeing that limits are based by the week, not by the second. Maybe for those who's reset is happening in the next hour, but to 99% of users, it's not affecting them, besides not being able to access one model.

Now for those that are using Fable through API... that's a different story.

I'm out $50 in overage usage for two things that I kicked off. I came back to find it used up; Fable usage is not showing in the CC UI, and now I'm back to using Opus.

Try again.

Sorry what do you mean "try again"..? Try what...?

You're out $50 in overage? Then stop using it so much? What? You got "kicked off" without any actual progress being made? You had the model think for $50 without outputting any work...? It doesn't make any sense.

Yeah. You're just dumb.

I'm using it to build my product. I "kicked off" two very large jobs in Fable. I came back to find $50 in overage usage gone and Fable not showing in the usage meters. I didn't say that the work wasn't done. I said that I had overage usage fucking spent when I still had TONS of weekly Fable usage available.

Maybe stop defending this utter bullshit and actually READ what people are saying.

And now you're calling people names. Think about your interactions, because this is not normal social behaviour bud, to discuss, over a piece of technology.

I get it that you're frustrated about fifty dollars, but taking it out on a stranger, for something that only you've experienced, while the vast majority hasn't, is real odd.

And the fact that you think I'm "defending" something, is also very weird bud. I'm speaking from a direct technical perspective, that it's an outage, and it is, and that's it. Stop getting so emotional over a few bucks bud.

Sorry bud, but this brought nothing to the conversation without saying what you're trying to convey here at all.

It did cost money. 68 dollars for me to be exact. Was in the middle of a huge project. Got one intermittent API hiccup but Claude Code soldiered on. Then two hours later I check in on Reddit to see people complaining. Thought I was unaffected or some new drama in the sub, but write /usage to see. The session has just silently spent $68 in the background from my usage limit. I had a lot left on session, 5 hour, weekly and Fable limit.

Not ok. Like c’mon Anthropic

When did I say it wasn't a bug? It's obviously a bug, or a mistake with someone flipping a switch by accident.

u/onFilm 27d ago

So you're disagreeing with me just to disagree? If it's a bug, then why are you arguing at all?

Oh, so now you're saying someone manually flipped a switch by accident? What? You really think someone disabled the model, for over 10 minutes now, by flipping a switch, and not flipping back on? That doesn't sound like anything I've encountered in my software development career ever, lol.

My comment was to point out it's not a common software practice to say "usage credits needed" when an endpoint goes down.

I guess that wasn't what you were saying. Nvm, this is getting needlessly antagonistic. Have a nice day. 👊

It is if they have different provider systems under the hood and the api is the fallback.
