What's Wrong?
On May 5th, 2026, I upgraded my Claude.ai subscription from Pro to Max 20x. The session limit (5-hour window) updated correctly and reflects the new plan, but the weekly usage limit did not update — it still behaves as if I am on the Pro/5x plan.
Concrete evidence:
- Last week: I hit 100% of the weekly cap on "all models" before the middle of the week, exactly as I used to on Pro.
- This week: the weekly limit reset on Sunday at 06:00. It is now Monday (one day into the new cycle) and I have already consumed ~30% of the weekly cap. At this pace I will hit 100% again mid-week.
- The Max 20x plan advertises 20x the session capacity of Pro plus proportionally higher weekly caps. My account is clearly not receiving that.
I have already opened a support ticket on May 8th (Conversation ID 215474226838507). The Fin AI agent acknowledged that this looks like a technical issue with how the Pro → Max 20x upgrade was processed and said it would require human investigation. I formally requested escalation to a human specialist and have received no human response in 3 days.
I am opening this issue because:
- The bug is observable in the account behavior, not just a billing question.
- Claude Code authenticated with the Max plan shares the same weekly quota, so the bug also impacts Claude Code usage.
- Support has not responded.
What Should Happen?
The weekly usage limits on my account should reflect the Max 20x plan I paid for on May 5th, 2026. Specifically:
- The "All models" weekly cap should be substantially higher than the Pro plan cap.
- The "Sonnet only" weekly cap should also reflect Max 20x levels.
- At normal professional usage (no session hitting 100%), I should not exhaust the weekly cap mid-week.
Expected outcome: backend review of the upgrade process, correction of the weekly limit values associated with my account, and confirmation that the fix is applied.
Error Messages/Logs
When the weekly cap is reached, Claude.ai displays a message stating that the weekly usage limit has been reached and shows a reset date (next Sunday at 06:00). No technical stack trace — this is a quota enforcement message, not a software crash.
Steps to Reproduce
This bug requires access to my specific account and is not externally reproducible. Internal reproduction steps would be:
- Identify the account associated with bruno.porreca@soulivon.com.br
- Verify the upgrade event from Pro to Max 20x on May 5th, 2026
- Compare the weekly usage limit values currently assigned to this account vs. the documented Max 20x values
- Observed: weekly limits appear consistent with the Pro plan, not Max 20x
- Expected: weekly limits should match Max 20x specification
