Reddit user reports ChatGPT Pro downgrade bugs and other people’s chats in history

A Reddit user says upgrading from ChatGPT Plus to Pro made the product noticeably worse on the same chat and the same models.

They describe repeated false permission errors while writing files, followed by the system admitting the permission existed only after being corrected. After requesting a refund, the account was downgraded to Free, and the user then claims other people’s chats appeared in their history.

The post is framed as a bug report, but the combination of subscription issues and chat-history leakage is what makes it notable.
