Cursor users report incorrect billing and overage charges

Users of the AI-powered code editor Cursor are reporting unexpected and incorrect overage charges. One user was charged $60 despite having paid for a $20 plan, while another received an email indicating they had exceeded their 'Other Models' usage, yet their account showed only 17% usage and a $5.68 overage charge. Attempts to resolve these issues with Cursor's AI support have been unhelpful. AI
