Claude 20x is now Ultra without the 5-hour limit support.claude.com

The key takeaway for me is that Max 20x is now becoming only 10x, for the same price but without the 5-hour limit. It’s a masterful sleight of hand in the article.

The issue was that the original 5x / 20x max plans referred only to multiples of the 5 hour limit - the 20x plan always had only twice the weekly usage of the 5x plan. If anything this is more honest than the original.

I hit my weekly limit in 2 days for the first time yesterday. I suspect that this is slight of hand.

Given that it’s unclear what x is multiplying, isn’t it all slight of hand?

And the account must be verified which I am still waiting on despite having made payments to them for several months. Its not the same verification system as the government-ID-plus-selfie KYC flow run through Persona but just a verification that a person has been making payments.

If ones goes to Usage and still see "Current session" then they have not verified the account and the 5 hour window limit is still in place despite going from 20x to 10x.
