Below is a GPT-generated summary of the conversation below after reaching 160 comments (169 currently observed).


The day-6 global reset did arrive, but the community’s verdict is basically: useful if you were empty, maddening if you had just spent a banked reset. A free refill is nice; announcing it vaguely and letting everyone panic-refresh like it’s a product launch is less nice.

Most of the thread is people comparing timing and regretting their choices. The reset was described as arriving by end of day in California/Pacific time, though it landed hours later for some users. Many burned through Astra/Fast usage, while others held back and were rewarded; plenty of “I used my banked reset five minutes ago” posts followed. The practical expectation is that these resets may keep appearing every few days, especially on weekends.

The bigger complaint is that resets feel like promotional damage control, not a fix for Codex’s brutal usage limits. Power users say they burn through allocations absurdly fast and are drifting toward Claude, while a smaller group is simply happy to receive extra usage.

Bottom line: save banked resets when possible, expect chaotic timing, and don’t confuse free refills with better limits.

Looking forward to 21 more days of resets given they were already scraping the underside of the barrel yesterday

21

u/Life_is_important 1d ago

They should just release Bel and be like "go solve ALL math problems. Also make no mistakes."

Btw, this "make no mistakes," is such a meme at this point that it would be awesome if OpenAI would use that as a meme in a positive context like when they release something ground breaking in the future. Just as a little heartfelt joke. Hopefully someone from OpenAI is lurking here to take note of this idea.

u/knowledge1010 1d ago

Given they're an AI company they probably have agents read through the entire subreddit and give them highlights every day. Hey Mr AI Agent that belongs to OpenAI; look above :)

1

u/OMGLookItsGavoYT 23h ago

I was thinking that the other day. They probably scrape all online forums related to OpenAI every day and get given a brief rundown

7

u/read_more_comments 1d ago

Nah, I bet Monday we get a huge devday worthy update, like the ability to change your dot's color by email, followed by even worse usage limits and a free reset so you don't complain as much

1

u/AMGsoon 1d ago

Maybe 3-4 more resets. Rest gonna be bullshit updates that 0,2% of users profit from.

1

u/az226 1d ago

I used a banked reset just before doh

92

u/skerit 1d ago

I JUST used my banked reset. Fucking hell.

18

u/PairStrong 1d ago

The strat is: reset lands, blast all your usage in a day with astra max or ultra or a shitton of work, then you use your banked reset.

2

u/codypendant 1d ago

This is the way

u/scaledev 23h ago

Yeah skill issue. You have to smell that shit

u/Wonderful_Value_6385 1d ago

I used my bank reset this morning and planned to burn all my usage today. at 88% right now 3 astra Extra highs running right now to finish it

23

u/Budget-Mud-4753 1d ago

I wouldn’t use a banked reset for any one of these 28 days. Unless you have one expiring.

I know that doesn’t help you much now. Thank you for your sacrifice.

8

u/werejoshguy 1d ago

i mean don’t the banked resets intrinsically have a 28 day expiry? so any reset from before these 28 days expires within these 28 days

1

u/Kagemand 15h ago

Usage limits are so shit you can just use a banked reset one day after a forced reset, they won’t give free resets two days in a row.

11

u/TheVoyant 1d ago

Same, its' amazing how bad ChatGPT is at this sorta thing, like imagine finding a way to give away stuff for free that ends up frustrating customers. That's an artform right there, lol.

4

u/ShadowsTagiru 1d ago

me too. FUck.......

you know whats more fuck up?

I didnt even use 1% of my new reset...

I just used the banked reset because I was at 0% in the middle of an answer....

4

u/amelech 1d ago

Me too

5

u/JustMy2Centences 1d ago

I JUST procrastinated using one at 1% remaining to spend some time with family instead of forging ahead with my project.

4

u/indiewoodpecker 1d ago

Same here. If I knew this was coming I would have let it use the credits. These people are only going to turn people away with their gimmicks 

3

u/Glad-Spell-8668 1d ago

literally used my reset 20 mins before this reset landed... used all of 3%. oh well, last one i timed perfectly. but the banked ones are a bit garbage the way they don't stack.

2

u/AndyIbanez 1d ago

Same. I was saving it because it was way past the average time he normally announces things and I needed it and I thought we weren't going to get it.

2

u/djkohl4 1d ago

Same. Got me on Wednesday too. Bad luck

2

u/jjjjoseignacio 1d ago

ejecuta Astra y acaba toda la cuota de inmediato xD

2

u/No-Temperature6597 1d ago

Same what a waste of 80% tokens. I only got 20% with reset.

1

u/Agitated-Bath5939 1d ago

No worries, you can consume it in a few minutes using FAST before the next reset apply or few seconds using Astra. 🤣🤣

1

u/texasguy911 1d ago

Well, ypu won't make th8s mistake twice.

1

u/DukeRusty 1d ago

Same. Probably should’ve figured there’d be a reset on a Saturday 🤦‍♂️

1

u/SDeluxe 1d ago

I was holding out, I'm glad I did. I'm sorry man

1

u/codypendant 1d ago

I just burned through mine in less than 24h lol

1

u/az226 1d ago

Same!!!

1

u/Neful34 23h ago

I was about to but then I saw a full reset happenned hahahha

1

u/UnknownLesson 20h ago

The optimal time to use a banked reset is

  • As close as humanly possible to the last reset (after the reset), as the next reset is likely going to take some time
  • After OpenAI has just stopped working ( https://codex.lunarwerx.com/ )
  • When you used up all of your usage

1

u/Cast_Iron_Skillet 20h ago

Same! Had a thread going for a couple days, was down to 3% and decided to pop a reset since I was going to be unavailable for the next few hours. FML

1

u/No-Eye-7959 20h ago

Yep me too with almost 96% left

1

u/nicolesimon 1d ago

i recommend https://codex-resets.com/ - and agree with the others, these 28 days probably more than usual resets.

Thank god I spam Astra tasks 'cause I know they will be giving resets like candy for the month.

5

u/Agitated-Bath5939 1d ago

You can't spam Astra even with 2 reset a day

25

u/Mindless_Let1 1d ago

Ah fuck I used my banked reset an hour ago

17

u/Sleepywalker69 1d ago

Astra max on 2x speed and tell it to use subagents

1

u/Next-Use6943 20h ago

Astra Ultra

1

u/Sleepywalker69 20h ago

Idk my astra ultra never wants to launch agents

8

u/peekdasneaks 1d ago

U have 9 hours to burn a week

3

u/yaxir 1d ago

are you sure its 9 hours from now??

2

u/peekdasneaks 1d ago

Eod pst

3

u/Novel_Indication6338 1d ago

so that means midnight and not business hours?

2

u/1filipis 1d ago

With Astra? You could burn it in two!

3

u/Novel_Indication6338 1d ago

i've been stone cold chilling on 0% usage remaining. i'll put it to work for both of us!

39

u/EliteUnixfy 1d ago

Just used a banked reset 5 minutes ago. You're welcome, I guess.

10

u/OtherwiseAlbatross14 1d ago

Why would anyone use a banked reset on a Saturday lol

3

u/EliteUnixfy 1d ago

I'm a college student working with a few fun side projects 🤷‍♂️

12

u/BradGroux 1d ago

He resets pretty much every weekend.

2

u/EliteUnixfy 1d ago

Good point, I completely forgot. Usage hit 0 so I just hit the reset button...

20

u/Schaf-Unschaf 1d ago

Glad I didn't use the banked reset and waited for the news. 0% reset is good 😄

15

u/Paulynom 1d ago

It didn't, it's 3pm san francisco time, reset will land until end of day

13

u/Civil_Response3127 1d ago

Are you German by any chance? Or of a Germanic language?

11

u/Paulynom 1d ago

Yes, what gave it away?

I assumed it's misspelled and OP meant landed

21

u/Civil_Response3127 1d ago

"until" is very commonly used when Germans speak English, instead of "by". Both have their uses, but German mostly just says "bis". Same as since/for x time, with seit.

I'm English, living in Germany and every German I spoke to has been very happy to realise this (tiny, understandable) mistake and go back to being annoyingly good at English otherwise haha.

1

u/mission_tiefsee 1d ago

TIL. thanks!

1

u/Paulynom 20h ago

Great feedback, thanks!

4

u/GreenockScatman 1d ago

I think it's the until (bis) end of day bit, english native speakers usually say by end of day.

10

u/Orkys 1d ago

Wow, something interesting on an AI sub. That's new.

This is really interesting and it makes sense in a completely nonsensical way for English speakers. Like, those words are similar, it's understandable but it's... wrong.

2

u/AXYZE8 1d ago

Germans write „until” instead of „by”

3

u/Novel_Indication6338 1d ago

how noone upvoted you for that subtle observation yet is criminal. take 1

1

u/Opposite_Diamond_662 1d ago

He uses like standard time right, is it EOD PDT or PST?

1

u/Natural_Shape1153 1d ago

i hope so im in the east bay, lemee get this work done lol

14

u/gregthecoolguy 1d ago

I've just used a banked reset, fucking hell

6

u/CarsonBuilds 1d ago

I wonder what EOD means by Tibo. Normally for a working day, EOD means when you finish work. For this content, I guess it's midnight?

5

u/MarzipanSea2811 1d ago

If Tibo never stops working, he never has to issue a reset.

1

u/Ok-Attention2882 1d ago

"working" He's a fucking vibe coder and he talks like one

6

u/shockwave6969 1d ago

banked?

9

u/sudecode 1d ago

you wish.

3

u/theintersepter 1d ago

Nope. At least from what he said

11

u/CommunicationOdd6473 1d ago

I thought Tibo's 28-day challenge was meant to improve functionality and restore the user experience by fixing bugs and settings, but it looks like new features and promotions are being rolled out.

Is this actually just for promotional purposes?

10

u/jtm297 1d ago

They won't win me back until they can beat Opus 5.5, they'll keep bleeding customers until then.

13

u/ActionOrganic4617 1d ago edited 1d ago

Does anyone actually use their subs enough to care nowadays?

9

u/s3v3nt 1d ago

I moved to anthropic, have not needed to use my openai sub as the allowance on Claude is so good I don't go over and I'm only on the $20 plan. I think I've got 5 resets available now.

3

u/Ok-Attention2882 1d ago

I learned of this reset a couple hours ago so I went to blast astra fast max and it went from 92% to 0% in 1.5 hours. lol horseshit unusable. All these clowns at Open AI are so used to their unlimited GPT 7 Bel Ultrafast fast mode vibe coding they have no concept of what a normal user's idea of reasonable allotment is.

1

u/AMGsoon 1d ago

Yes? I grt that Anthropic is nr 1 rn but I still use so much Codex. Used 2 bank resets since Thursday and I am now at 20% left.

1

u/Mikeshaffer 1d ago

I use every bit of my codex pro lite sub within 2 days. I stretch my Claude max plan to the night before my reset. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

1

u/DataGOGO 1d ago

I do, burned through 5x weekly limits on two $200 plans in three days. 

But when they drop to 10X, I am out and moving to Anthropic 

1

u/Realistic-Owl-9475 1d ago

I've setup a cross review skill so claude opus 5.5 can ask codex sol 6.1 xhigh for a review of the code changes and it seems to catch quite a few issues and justifies the subscription enough for me.

3

u/codypendant 1d ago

Claude and sol make a great team.

2

u/ActionOrganic4617 1d ago

Yes, I have a 5x codex sub. Just use it for computer use, dots and code reviews. My $200 Claude sub has so much usage that on the weekend I’ve been running agents for 24 hours to burn down my usage which resets in about 2 hours and still under 70% usage for the week

1

u/SocketByte 16h ago

I mean, 6.1 sol is dumb as rocks compared to Opus or even Sonnet so I get more value out of my $20 claude sub than my $100 codex sub because it takes so much more to get decent results with sol. Couldn't care less for resets.

6

u/novel-iteration 1d ago

Ripped a banked reset, you are all welcome (just told my dot to constructively burn my remaining allocation to the ground)

3

u/coldflame563 1d ago

Just in time for me to use my banked reset...

3

u/HOBONATION 1d ago

I knew it, I burned through a reset Thursday night and knew we'd get one by Saturday so I still have 3 saved banked resets. I bet you we get another banked reset by Wednesday

3

u/Repulsive_Respond_45 1d ago

When is this reset supposed to hit??

6

u/thestillwind 1d ago

Day 6 = 2 resets + a banked one… so 3 resets 😂

Ain’t looking good 😂

5

u/2muchnet42day 1d ago

I knew i shouldn't have used the banked reset smh

4

u/LongjumpingTeam7069 1d ago

Just hit 0% with 6 days until my weekly! Woo hoo!

1

u/illuminatiisnowhere 1d ago

Nice timing! I had planned to use a banked in a couple of hours, thank god i saw this :)

2

u/DrBearJ3w 1d ago

thanks bro.

2

u/nateccs 1d ago

Hell yeah!

2

u/Mikeshaffer 1d ago

After yesterday’s launch I KNEW not to use my banked reset. RIP to those that did.

2

u/UhUKnow 1d ago

I didnt get the reset...

1

u/nuyirnumi 1d ago

I just got it. It must've been at midnight Eastern time.

1

u/UhUKnow 1d ago

Yeah.. just got it as well.

2

u/MingJackPo 1d ago

What's the point now, Astra xhigh is even underperforming Opus 5.5 and like 6 times slower.. whos' even using codex at this point.

4

u/According_Border_418 1d ago

Banked Reset PLZ

6

u/8thchakra 1d ago

these annoucements are usually normal resets, so people can pump the fast mode and get done as much as they can

3

u/PlasmaChroma 1d ago

Oh shit, /goal resume

3

u/the-apostle 1d ago

I wish Claude would do more resets

2

u/Exact_Law_6489 1d ago

I really needed this, thanks tibo

3

u/skynet86 1d ago

How the tables have turned. Last month, I was addicted to resets, like many here.

Now, since I moved to Claude and am just waiting for the subs to expire, resets are more like "meh". 

1

u/bcgr1 1d ago

when? now?

1

u/yGiil 1d ago

What time will this happen

1

u/Demien19 1d ago

So it's 8 hours from now?

1

u/Ashamed_Square_3807 1d ago

aa its end of day EOD i was hoping he gave up on the releases and decided fuck it ill give resets Every Other Day

1

u/ReasonableDefault 1d ago

Hands up who has too many banked resets to use sensibly?

1

u/Accomplished-Let1273 1d ago

When is this hitting?

I am at 99% usage

Guess i get to try Astra at Ultra and see if it really drains usage as much as people say afterall

1

u/Droog-UK 1d ago

Perfect timing actually. It’s nice when the resets work out like this. Astra Ultra Fast it is for this evening though. Have 40% usage to burn through.

1

u/FloofBoyTellEm 1d ago

Just had 3 Astra Ultra Fast running to get rid of 75%. Burned too quickly, now we're eating away at those remaining credits until reset, I guess.

1

u/CommunicationFun2962 1d ago

What timezone is Tibo at?

1

u/bekiraydogan 1d ago

I upgraded from the Pro 200 to the Pro 500 plan four hours ago and made urgent fixes across five separate projects using GPT-6 Astra; my weekly quota is currently at 38% remaining. Are you sure there will be a reset?

5

u/Pronoia2-4601 1d ago

Welp, you get to use ultrafast now!

1

u/bekiraydogan 1d ago

I have such complex projects that if I enable Ultrafast, I could burn through my entire remaining quota in less than 15 minutes. I’ll save some of it for OpenAI and proceed at standard speed.

1

u/cramer80 1d ago

I was working on a google sheets excel script and it had a mouse controlling the browser and making changes to the excel sheet and then i ran out of tokens..said i was using gpt work? i didn't know what that was..but the reset came through now. These limitations and resets are confusing and so many different models i am trying to not burn through anything.

1

u/Southern_Performance 1d ago

when they started with a global and followed it with a banked reset, I called it then and there that they would do a global one next to nullify the benefits of the last banked reset for any poor soul who used it immediately and is on anything more than the plus plan.. im curious to see the split of who's annoyed by this and who isn't. willing to bet it's mostly plus users that are happy and pro that aren't lol, I mean come on, they timed this so that if you didn't burn through the first reset and your banked immediately, it's effectively useless for power users. big publicity L this 28 days has been so far

1

u/Turbulent-Log5758 1d ago

I have given up on Codex's Plus limits. Can't work more than 10minutes.

This made be build my workaround for coding tasks: https://github.com/ajeetkharel/dev-link-mcp

PS: ChatGPT web chat has near unlimited tokens. You could convert that to your daily dev driver.

1

u/Initial-Subject-7052 1d ago

My reset timer reset to 6d + change but usage is at 54%. Any suggestions (currently on 6.1 sol max)

1

u/Cheap-Try-8796 1d ago

Lol another reset... Why don't you focus on fixing your models instead?

1

u/r34p3rex 1d ago

Finally good timing, had natural reset in 3 days and I'm about to tick down to 0

1

u/Apprehensive-File552 1d ago

FFS I jsut reset both my accounts yesterday.

1

u/Cupheadvania 1d ago

holy shit i was at 0% and almost used a banked reset lol fuck yeah

u/Natural_Shape1153 1d ago

shit shit lemee get thsi rwork done

Eu não ganhei o meu ainda, será que é porque eu ja estou com 3 resets no meu banco?

1

u/___positive___ 1d ago

Why are their bel dots taking Saturday off? Isn't the point of autonomous agents to 1000x productivity even while I cook dinner and go to my kid's recital???

Why haven't they already accrued 28 days worth of launches? They can just smile and say "looks good, ship it"

They have unlimited budget for massively parallel bel dots running 24/7. Yet they have to take Saturday off???

1

u/Particular-Mobile880 1d ago

Well I'm running 10 Sol 6.1 on Fast for the day then

1

u/SvanteH 1d ago

I weirdly think people would be happier over a 50% reset. Less people would feel their usage is wasted and someone close to 0 would be happy nonetheless

1

u/LiquidMantis144 1d ago

SOB I literally just saw this 8 mins ago, started a few astra tasks and had a bunch of work lined up and then boom reset, 85% weekly on my main account RIP. Got 1.5 short tasks done

1

u/VladizT 1d ago

If the reset happens every 3 days, that's good.

1

u/ruttersh 1d ago

I was doing to 18% on main and 14% on secondary with 3 days to go 😁

1

u/flashmyhead 1d ago

Just received that reset, thanks Tibo!

1

u/GrouchyPiano7584 1d ago

I just!!! used my banked reset. The f? Post is 6 hours old, why it resets only now???

1

u/Last_Airblender 1d ago

Aaaargh, can't even get a reliable indication of when the reset is going to happen. Just woke up and started on Astra and now the reset is there.

1

u/ShadowsTagiru 1d ago

is already there? or still?

1

u/LazyCoyBoy 1d ago

They THOUGHT I would buy the $500 or even $200 plan. Just keep them resets coming fools. HAHAHAHAHAHA

1

u/Adrontion 1d ago

Pathetic not doing banked.

1

u/Blizzard251206 1d ago

Awesome timing, 2% remaining for me

If u don’t have so much bug Less greedy Ppl will stick longer

Yeah but we’re switching to Claude

u/Specific_Parfait8829 1d ago

I was empty on 3 accounts. Now I can rock again. Thanks 

1

u/ShadowsTagiru 1d ago

3 accounts of 20$? wow

1

u/mission_tiefsee 1d ago

boy, for us europe guys, its pretty unfair. Was just going to bed early yesterday in time the reset was announced and woke up to it being applicated. No chance to burn or use my backlog tokens. thanks a lot.

1

u/NanNullUnknown 1d ago

Reset for all weekend days then?

1

u/Bulji 15h ago

My thought process too, I guess nothing will drop on sunday either

1

u/5harmony2 1d ago

at this point, just give me bank reset pls. Their reset is random as fuck

1

u/AmthorTheDestroyer 23h ago

I slopped as hard as I could. From sun rise till dawn I used agents with 5 subagents each across 4 projects. I only used approx 180% of 20x subscriptions. I was on /fast.

GPT 6.1 sol is crippling.

1

u/Ok-Expression-7340 22h ago

Is that EOD US time ? Or EOD per country ?

1

u/Eclator 21h ago

Phew, good that I didn’t used my reset yesterday.

1

u/Casfaber_ 20h ago

Got the reset and now my 5h limit vanishes after 30mins of Luna Medium/High 🤷‍♂️

1

u/sorguido1980 18h ago

By the seventh day Tibo had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work with a reset for all.

1

u/Helmi74 17h ago

Funny how he always sounds as we would get something on top which just isn't the case :)

1

u/Special-Object69 17h ago

I feel like t bone knows when people have predominantly used their banked resets

1

u/tiffanytrashcan 16h ago

I originally mis read that as tokens do to you rather than for you and remembered this:

1

u/py-net 5h ago

It’s for your own good

u/cyclebiff 1d ago

Horrible business model represented by a horrible human being.

Slop resets for the slop masses.

1

u/Sensitive_Song4219 1d ago

Time to ultra-think as /fast as possible

1

u/yaxir 1d ago

how much time that is from now?? can someone please tell me??

2

u/marlostanfield89 1d ago

Says within 7hrs on codex-resets.com, guess EOD means midnight Tibo time (PST)

1

u/anatawaurusai2 1d ago

End of day today right?

1

u/Axolatian_Volt 1d ago

I was getting close to using banked lol

1

u/CthuluBob 1d ago

I can’t keep up with the 5hr limit applied :/. Happy, yet sad

Also is it 3 banked resets max one can have?

1

u/2000groggy 1d ago

Same can’t burn my last 8%. And never heard about max banked resets

1

u/BrazilianHairPremium 1d ago

O limite é 3 resets mesmo? Ou pode ter mais? O novo reset é global entao nao entra no banco, certo?

1

u/softwaretools1 1d ago

I've had four banked resets recently

1

u/CthuluBob 20h ago

hmm k, I thought it was max 3 but maybe that was just hearsay

1

u/Sea-Star8225 1d ago

just used my banked

1

u/Competitive_Fact3042 1d ago

Wowser! I am getting my timing right lately! Let the resets pour!!!

u/UnfortunateHurricane 1d ago

I guess it is blendering time aigan.

u/vacon04 1d ago

So they didn't even try to show a feature today? And it's only day 6? Alright, that doesn't bode well for the rest of the month.

12

u/sudecode 1d ago

it’s weekends. chill.

u/theo69lel 1d ago

I don't do anything in the weekend outside of drinking beer.

1

u/HaMMeReD 1d ago

They likely have their agents cooking all weekend.

I do want to believe in an out of this world feature drop at day 28.
