  "textContent": "I’m in the same boat as you. I’ve been experiencing this exact issue since 12th April, right after the “change to Codex credit pricing”. Paid for 1000 credits before the pricing change, used my credits 3 times. Then when the change happened I saw my credits dropping down from 970 to 650 overnight then 400 and it disappeared the next day. My credit history only shows 3 credit usage that I can confirm.\n\nToday I just opened Codex and saw my 100% 5 hour usage limit go down to 95% in about 5 minutes. I do not have Automation or Memory enabled so Codex was just sitting there chewing up usage.\n\nI have a case with the Support Team I hope they will fix these issues. If there are any background tasks, users must know about it and be able to control it.",
