Cannot use any premium model, Pro+ #161563

I'm experiencing the exact same issue. Just upgraded to Copilot Pro+ and after only a couple of interactions with Claude Sonnet 4, I got the message saying I exceeded my premium request allowance, even though I barely used it and my billing shows $0. It automatically switched me to GPT-4.1 and won’t let me use any premium models. Everything was working fine until I hit that false limit. Really hoping this gets fixed soon. It's frustrating to pay for Pro+ and lose access to the main features right away. |

I paid $39 but github copilot says You have exceeded your premium request allowance. We have automatically switched you to GPT-4.1 which is included with your plan. Enable additional paid premium requests to continue using premium models Even though I have never used it before, why is it not allowed? |

I created a support ticket and the support team ask me to request for refund lol. Not expected this but I accepted the refund, and will wait until this issue is fixed or become more stable overtime? |

I have exactly the same problem. My payment is visible as success in transaction history, however in my revoult account i can see it is pending on provider side, maybe that is the issue. |

I totally agree with @davidawkap, On the other hand, i see this text "Allowance will reset August 1, 2025". |

I'm starting to get worried now. Radio silence on my support request. No acknowledgement of the actual problem, just patronising clarifications about how things work (even though the problem is that they don't f*****g work at all). My free trial is up and my paid plan is about to start tomorrow. I'm already unable to use budgets. Some people in this thread have been waiting for 2 months for a fix. I didn't think being robbed and gaslit by GitHub was on the bingo card for 2025. |

Barely touched GitHub Copilot chat, and hit my quota almost instantly, no transparency at all, I'm incredibly confused. Why are the Copilot folks not explaining why quotas are getting hit substantially faster now? |

the quota was reset on 1-Aug, let's how it goes after reaching the limit again (see if new budgets / upgrade to pro+ will work). |

Yikes! Was using Claude Sonnet 4 & switching to GPT-4 completely ruined my code! Or is it just a "bug" (emphasis on the quotation marks) I find it hard to believe a guru Tech-Team from Github (Microsoft in general) can fail to address what seems to be a rather minute problem after so many complaints Anyways - In the meantime said circumstances have made me move to Claude-Code since it runs well in VS Code Terminal hope this gets fixed soon? (Working on Copilot Chat is much more efficient than Terminal imo) |

After updating my budget to allow to pay more I am still getting this error! I don't know how this product went out without rechecking user's budgets at login. Now I paid more money, after running out of free requests, ran out of paid requests, enabled more money to be spent, and still can't use it. Tried logging in and out and blowing out credential cache. Anything else? |

I pay 100 USD a year for the Copilot subscription. I wish I could at least find the daily refresh time or something. |

ISSUE IS WITH FREE TRIAL! For some reason the free trials don't support additional budgets for copilot premium requests. Need to be on the paid Copilot subscription, not on trial. |
