A user criticized Codex's quota billing as extremely opaque, claiming that a single request consumed 35% of their 5-hour weekly allowance while only performing about 8 minutes of actual code generation work. The lack of clear billing breakdowns and the high hidden cost led the user to label the system a scam, arguing that the quota system lacks predictability and verifiability.
