ChatGPT keeps giving us full usage resets
A Reddit user on a $200 OpenAI plan reported that their usage limit was reduced from 20x to 10x. However, they also noted that OpenAI has been providing free usage resets approximately every week. This allows them to effectively double their usage by consuming the initial 10x, then utilizing a reset to gain another 10x. The user expressed satisfaction with this arrangement as long as the free resets continue.
This report uniquely details how OpenAI's weekly free resets effectively double the usage for some users, unlike the stated 10x limit after a reduction from 20x.

Our $200 plan went from 20x usage to 10x, but OpenAI keeps giving us free resets roughly every week.
