ChatGPT Plus users report OpenAI quietly cut voice model choice and live voice limits
Then-Cold6790 · reddit · 2026-09-26
A ChatGPT Plus subscriber reports that after a recent outage, OpenAI removed the option to choose voice models in live voice mode and sharply reduced usage limits — advanced voice previously ran for hours with fallback to standard mode, both now gone.
The user, who relies on voice mode for studying, calls the change effectively a pay cut. This is a single-user account; OpenAI has not officially confirmed the policy change.
