Thanks for reporting this, and sorry about the trouble. Being stuck on "Free usage exceeded" when the timer doesn't seem to move is frustrating.
The free usage limit and its reset time are tracked by the OpenCode Console (Zen) service for your account, not by the app on your PC. The countdown you see in OpenCode is only how long the app waits before retrying, so it stops while OpenCode is closed. The real limit resets on the server whether the app is open or not.
If you're still blocked after the reset time, the team needs to look at your account. Billing and account support isn't handled in GitHub issues, so please email help@anoma.ly with:
what happened, as you described here
the exact error message and reset time you see
roughly when you last used OpenCode
If you've already emailed, the team will get to it, especially now that we've seen it here. Please don't post email addresses, account details or payment information in this public issue. Put them in the email instead.

you guys really need to get your stuff together if your charging for something that is open source. I'm on the paid go monthly plan, and I am getting free usage exceeded.... I can see the logs coming in on the dashboard, getting rejected in real-time. Your measures to throttle is actually hurting your business. Fingers crossed your AI can fix it in 8 hours when the limit is lifted, or I'm just going to have to pay $20 instead for claude.
We're closing this now because billing and account support happens by email, not in GitHub issues. Thanks for reporting it, @souhaib2000.
