What's Wrong?
For the past 15 days I have been unable to access the payment/billing settings page on claude.ai. The page does not load and my abo is suspended now.
Error details
When opening the billing URL in an Incognito window (no extensions, no VPN), the browser receives the following raw API response:
{"type":"error","error":{"type":"permission_error","message":"Invalid authorization","details":{"error_visibility":"user_facing","error_code":"account_session_invalid"}},"request_id":"req_011CZckCGBJtqSmwWngd8Fvm"}
Troubleshooting already performed
- Tested in Incognito mode (Chrome) → same error
- VPN is disabled
- Cleared all cookies and site data for claude.ai and anthropic.com in Chrome → problem persists
- Re-logged in after cookie deletion → billing page still not reachable
- Tested on other devices (iphone and ipad)

What Should Happen?
Please investigate whether there is a server-side issue with my account session or billing token.
