This pricing model is frustrating and dishonest.

What's Wrong?

"I'm paying £100 a month for Claude Pro, yet Cowork and Claude Code still burn through my usage credits extremely quickly. The limits get used up suspiciously fast since the recent updates, and the desktop app is constantly buggy — it frequently freezes, fails to install plugins, and throws false usage limit errors even when I still have tokens left.
This pricing model is frustrating and dishonest. The subscription feels completely pointless when the actual tools I use aren't included."

What Should Happen?

I am paying £100 per month for Claude Pro. This subscription should include full unlimited access to all Claude products — including Claude Code, Cowork, and the desktop app — without burning extra usage credits or hitting artificial limits.
The current system where Pro subscribers still get charged separately for the tools they actually use is confusing and unfair. The Pro subscription should cover everything
