Claude Pro usage ran out after only two prompts
Claude’s $20 monthly Pro Plan appeared to hit its much faster than expected. Over the previous two days, Claude had been used to build a small music guessing game for friends, and it usually allowed about two straight hours of coding requests for website features and backend connections.
The limit was reached the night before, with access scheduled to return at 4:20 AM. Work resumed at 10:30 AM the next day, but only two requests were accepted before the limit appeared again.
Those requests were simple: add a button that opens another page, and make that page password protected. The next reset time was shown as 3:30 PM, raising the question of whether this was a bug or an unexpected usage calculation.
Key points
- normally allowed around two hours of coding help in this workflow.
- The previous was expected to reset at 4:20 AM.
- After resuming at 10:30 AM, only two prompts went through before the limit returned.
- The two requests were simple page and password-protection changes.
- The next reset time was shown as 3:30 PM, creating about whether this was a bug.
