Very sudden Error: "user_weekly_rate_limited"

[seat-01]

Describe the bug

This new kind of limitation seems like a bug.

Why?

Because i do not believe that you (Microsoft) are so amateurish to introduce it "out of the blue".

Please verify.

Additional context

Copilot bot, stay out of my issues, you do not have the ability to assess senior grade issues. Closing them in a wild-west manner forces me (the customer) to invest even more time.

pure circus show. But what to expect from a team that uses kitschy emojis/graphics in a professional deep-thought tool...

Then this fuzzy announcement:

https://github.blog/changelog/2026-04-10-enforcing-new-limits-and-retiring-opus-4-6-fast-from-copilot-pro/

which essentially says NOTHING and just links like crazy to docs that nobody waste time reading.

You need to state the RULES, clearly, and stop hiding your rate-limiter rules.

Customers pay, cusiomers have the right to know the rules.

We are paying users and we did not see the appropriate terms! Unreasonable COPILOT!!!

Microsoft sold you a car and then told you you’re only allowed to drive 50 miles a day.
