Claude user complains of contradictory usage limits: unlock time vs 5-hour reset confusion

A Reddit user vented about Claude's usage limits: the UI shows an unlock time of Sep 15, 1:56, while also saying the 5-hour limit resets in 5 hours — two contradictory timelines.

He claims 5-hour resets often simply don't happen, calling it a broken promise and feeling scammed for his money, with a screenshot as evidence. The post reflects recurring user frustration with the opacity of Anthropic's rate-limit accounting.
