A user on Reddit reported a significant increase in credit consumption when using Anthropic's Claude models, specifically Opus 4.8 and Sonnet. The user observed that after purchasing usage credits, the models began draining them at a much faster rate, even for simple tasks, compared to before the purchase. This rapid depletion occurred within minutes, leading the user to speculate that Anthropic might be throttling usage or altering credit consumption rates after a paid top-up. AI
