ChatGPT Astra $20 plan burns through three 5-hour limits on a single task, user complains
crylizz · reddit · 2026-10-10
- A Reddit user says Astra on the $20 ChatGPT plan is practically unusable for real work: one prompt on a 10-sheet xlsx and 150-page docx exhausted the 5-hour limit in 15 minutes, then tripped it twice more.
- The task eventually succeeded but required 15 hours of waiting across resets.
- The user is locked into the company workspace plan due to sensitive data and can't upgrade to higher tiers, highlighting the mismatch between subscription quotas and compute-hungry model usage.
