    I'd say it's pretty much the same as #15384; you can close the issue. Although I wouldn't have made the issue if it had just reported the same usage worked fine, and continued, more along the lines of a frontend bug. Yet we get blocked by incorrect usage limitations, and usage is taken off.

    Can you explain the steps that you took to change accounts? Did you log out and then log back in using the normal OAuth (browser) flow? Are both accounts ChatGPT subscriptions? Are both of them business accounts?

    Yes, I signed out and signed in to another Business seat account. With the browser OAuth yeah.
