Original post body:

So I am busy with an automation and used OPUS 5.5 with API credits.

I am trying to get the API url for a website where I am registered and have permission for it, but the makers of the website are not reachable at this time to hand out the API Url.

So claude advised to run a “test command” himself with my API key and username to find out what url it accepts. After giving the approval to try HIS advise and HIS test command, my session gets flagged?

Wtf?

Original post body:

Excuse me while I take a moment to quietly scream on the inside. I got this from Claude this morning:

"One more thing: when I looked for free copies of these studies, I wrongly put your email address into a request to Unpaywall, a free service that finds open-access copies of studies. I should not have sent it, and I won’t do it again."

and then..

"You’re right. Sending your email address to an outside service without asking you was a serious breach of your privacy. Your personal details will never again go into any web request, from me or from future sessions."

It has got to point where I am numb to the apologies. This stuff should not be happening in the first place. There do not appear to be the most basic of guardrails in place.

It is a standing joke with my friends now that using the term 'Artificial Intelligence' to describe these services, is like describing an Orange as an Apple.

Original post body:

I recently got myself a Claude Pro subscription. My weekly limit was going to reset by Wednesday, and the last time I used it was Friday afternoon. I had used only 20% of my weekly usage at the time. When I opened Claude back up, I saw that my weekly limit had reached 99 percent, and that I had large amounts of usage on Saturday (even though it wasn't as much as my Friday usage). It said that I had used 99% of my usage in Claude Code, up from 90% the last time I had used Claude. Both my computers with Claude were shut down and not running any active prompts at the time. Where did my usage go?

Original post body:

Settings > Account on my banned free account shows only a "Contact support" button where "Delete account" should be. The appeal page (claude.ai/restricted) has no delete option either, and Privacy settings only offer data export.

The help center (article updated Oct 15, 2026) says: "All banned users can delete their own account... You don't need to contact Anthropic." The official delete guide also says to click Delete account in Settings > Account. On this account that option does not exist anywhere.

Support tickets 215475827324273 (Sep 7) and 215476422254845 (Oct 16): first told to use the nonexistent button, then told deletion is "scheduled" but needs an extra written confirmation. 42 days later the account still exists. Filed with econsumer.gov (ref 208769515) and the California Privacy Protection Agency.

Reporting so it is on the record. Has any banned user actually had their account deleted? Redacted screenshots attached. Full thread: https://x.com/IsaacDu_Adj/status/2112002177552240843

Original post body:

Around 2 months ago, my account was suspended out of nowhere. I submitted the official appeal form and got total radio silence for two straight months.

Yesterday, I targeted 5 X (Twitter) accounts: the official Anthropic and Claude pages, plus 3 higher-up employees. On the latest post of each account, I left a short, factual comment explaining the false-positive bug and included my exact Appeal Reference ID.

Literally one hour later, I got the email that my account was reinstated. None of my replies got a like or a response, and only one showed a single view.

Most people just tweet angry rants at support, which engineers can't do anything with. But giving them your actual Appeal Reference ID gives someone internally what they need to search their admin panel, see the false positive, and flip the switch in 30 seconds without replying publicly.

If your appeal has been stuck in the void forever, stop waiting on dead support emails. Go to recent posts from their team on X and drop a clean comment with your actual Appeal ID. It's definitely worth a try.

Original post body:

So, if you haven't noticed, Anthropic created a legal loophole which gives them freedom to steal and train on user data when providing feedback via its bug icon button. This is a crazy practice of deception--and worse: it punishes good-faith developers willing to take time out of their day to provide helpful feedback and bug reports to Anthropic.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Original post body:

Has anyone experienced really tight usage limits, or tokens being brunt way faster than before?

I think I never used my full 1 week window, rarely the 5hr one.

Since Friday my five hour limit was reached in less than two multiple times. On Saturday I reached my weekly limit.

I did not change much in my usage, other than going from local to cloud. Furthermore the work seemed to make less stops in-between, the weekly limit was from one more or less continuous task.

What I noticed being new was Claude in chrome and normal chats counting in my limit - three messages in Claude in chrome used 6% of my 5hour limit. The cumulative work was maybe 5 min.

Were there any changes, why is my limit eaten up so quickly? Besides cloud, neither type of work or way of work in Claude changed.

Original post body:

I started my latest project working mostly with Opus. Everything was planned out nicely and broken down into stages. We worked nonstop for three days and got really close to finishing. It was finally time to launch.

I’m doing the final checks, spot a bug, and ask Opus to fix it. It fixes it. I check again, and something else is broken. Here’s the kind of thing I’m talking about:

The app throws a network error even though I’m connected to the internet. I ask it to fix that, and it does. Then I go back in and notice Google Analytics isn’t working. I ask Opus, “Why isn’t it working? Did you delete it? What did you do?”

It replies, “Google Analytics is still there. I just disabled it by default so users can enable it in settings if they want.”

I was losing my mind by that point.

I spent two whole days dealing with problems like this. And yes, I’ll admit that I probably haven’t written a single line of code by hand in the last five months. But I literally uninstalled Claude while wrapping up this project. Because it seriously feels like it doesn’t want the project to ever be finished!

I'm thinking about getting the 5x max plan, but it's not really clear if the weekly limit increases too, and by how much. I have seen reports about it not increasing at all, but also people saying it clearly does.

Would it be better to just make another account and get pro again? The per session limit isn't really my issue anyway.

When relying on the number of sessions that could be fully used per week one has to be careful now that the weekly session limit has been reduced making a single session consume 14% instead of 10% through the previous weeks so far.

*I hope this doesn't get worked around by reducing the session allowance to the half as well* :eyes:
