Same here.

Hi @avavalletta3-7295 @office-5045, can you share the model you're using and some example prompts that took the $1.1 or such high amounts to process?

Hi Anshuman, thank you for looking into this.

I am using a Team plan, and both my wife and I have been experiencing this issue since yesterday across two separate projects. The chat has become almost unusable due to extreme latency and constant timeouts.

As you can see in the attached screenshot, I asked the agent for a relatively simple task—translating one subpage into Ukrainian. The agent worked for 11 minutes and 26 seconds, only to end in an 'Agent Timeout' without finishing the task. The main issues we are facing:

• Extreme Credit Consumption: Even though the tasks fail with a timeout, we are being charged heavily. A single failed attempt like this costs us around $5 in credits.

• Total Loss of Responsiveness: Tasks that used to take seconds now take over 10 minutes.

• Consistent Failure: We tried duplicating the chat to clear history, but the result is the same. Smaller, new projects seem to respond slightly better, but our main projects are completely stuck.

We really enjoy using v0, but since we are on a paid Team plan, this sudden drop in performance and high cost for failed tasks is very frustrating. Could you please check if there is an issue with the model's processing efficiency or our account's performance allocation?

Thank you!

Can someone look into the current credit consumption on my account please as this level of expenditure on my part isn’t sustainable. I’ve been very gracious over the period of this project not complaining about constant rewrites to fix the same problem, but I’m at the stage where this project is no longer workable via v0.

Thanks

Hi @office-5045, I see. Which model are you using here: v0 Mini/Pro/Max?

Also, which country are you using v0 from? Are you using any VPNs?

Can you share the chat link (ensure it's private)?

Hi @adamwade-2115, can you share more information about which model (v0 Mini/Pro/Max) have you been using? Some examples of where you think the credits are too much for the task? Also, add chat URLs or IDs for more context/

Hi @Anshuman, here are the details you requested:

• Location & VPN: I am using v0 from Slovakia and I am not using any VPN.

• Models used: Originally, I was using v0 Max because it was fast and the credit consumption was reasonable. However, since the extreme slowdown started, I switched to v0 Mini to save credits. Even with Mini, I am being charged around $1 per message, which seems very high given the lack of responsiveness.

• Chat Link: I would like to share the chat link with you, but I want to ensure it stays private. Since this is a public forum, how should I send it to you privately? Can I DM it to you, or is there another secure way?

As shown in my screenshot, the system worked for over 11 minutes before a timeout. This is where most of my credits are being wasted—on tasks that never finish.

Thanks for sharing this information. @office-5045 you can share the chat link here as long as it's private. To confirm it's secure, you can try opening the link in a private/incognito browser window. It shouldn't open.

Do not share public or unlisted links here.

Hello, here is the link.

Hi Mate,

im using Vo max. as you can see from the screenshot below, one prompt used 3.08 credits

I have attached another example of a simple task that cost me $5.34. Interestingly, when I hover over the info icon, it shows an Input cost of $8.56 and an Output cost of $0.24. This is so confusing.

I concur exactly with what users are saying here - cost has gone thru the roof in the last 2-3 days, very basic changes that were costing $0.15-0.30 are now costing up to 10x, completely unsustaintable.

Attached is my usage export showing clearly the change in last few days, versus 30 day average beforehand

please can this be resolved asap & consider giving us a excess credit refund. thanks

I am seeing the exact same spike in costs, but is anyone else also experiencing extreme system slowdowns?

That's weird. What do you see when you expand the usage details under the message in the chat view (as in the previous reply by ava).

Hi Anshuman, here is another concrete example of the issue.

I asked the agent to translate a single static ‘About’ page from Slovak to Ukrainian. This is a very basic task with no dynamic elements or complex logic.

Model: v0 Pro.

Duration: It took 5 minutes and 28 seconds to complete (see ‘Action.png’).

Cost: It cost 1.41 credits for this single message.

Post-task Lag: Even after the work is done, every preview takes about 20 seconds to load, making it impossible to work efficiently.

Combined with my previous examples where it took 11 minutes and ended in a timeout for $5, it seems like the system is struggling with basic processing. Is there a reason why a simple static page translation is now taking 5+ minutes and costing so much more than a few days ago?

Hi Anshuman, I am attaching one last example before I stop using the agent entirely until this is resolved.

The latest example:

Task: Translating a single, simple contact form.

Duration: It took 9 minutes and 5 seconds to process.

Cost: 1.99 credits for this one message.

I cannot afford to give the agent any more tasks at this stage. Over the last few days, this issue has cost us hundreds of dollars in credits for very basic work that either takes far too long or ends in a timeout. It is incredibly frustrating, especially on a Team plan where we expected stability.

I am officially requesting a resolution to this latency and a refund of the excess credits consumed over the last few days. The current credit consumption is completely out of line with the complexity of the tasks (static pages and simple forms).

I look forward to your update and a fair resolution regarding the lost credits.

I’ve consumed 10$ with a single message. What’s happening? I expect to be credited of 40$ consumed today with just few messages or I will stop to use this service. Just saying.

Chat links would be super helpful! Thank you for all the feedback folks.

Here’s my public chat link & usage cost below, so you can correlate. Even the mini model, which is not that effective is running up high costs, need to use Pro all the time.

thanks

Can you unlist it? Would be helpful! Private chats aren’t readable by us.

Updated to public link

Dear Pauline,

I’m writing to ask if there is any actual technical support available for v0.app. I’m not sure who to turn to anymore. We’ve been discussing the massive credit consumption here since yesterday, sharing screenshots and chat links, but nothing has been resolved.

I am working on a simple website, yet every single prompt now takes 5 to 10 minutes to process. When I first started, everything was lightning fast. Now, I’m stuck waiting for minutes only to face timeouts or broken code.

To make matters even worse, once the agent finally finishes the task, the preview of the page takes nearly another full minute to render. This total delay—waiting for the agent and then waiting for the preview—makes the development workflow completely broken.

I am essentially paying for ‘Standard’ or ‘Pro’ performance, but I am getting a response time that feels like the system is under extreme load or significantly throttled. Could you please verify if there is a platform-wide issue or if something is specifically wrong with my Team’s resource allocation?

Is there a known issue with the servers right now, or is this the new ‘normal’ for the app? I need someone to actually look at my account and tell me what is going on. At this rate, I’m seriously considering moving to a different platform because it’s impossible to work like this. Is there anyone here who can provide real assistance beyond just collecting screenshots?

Thank you for your help.

Is there any update on this? token/credit usage has massively increased for unknown reasons, numerous threads are popping up here. thanks

Hey, folks! Thank you so much for your patience here. The v0 team has viz on this thread, so keep sharing more feedback We shipped some changes earlier this week to lower costs. The team is looking into further optimisations, and we'll keep you updated! We do recommend using the Mini and Pro models as they are cheaper than the Max model.

Hi, I’m using V0 Max. The credit price seems to have risen across the board which has effected the more heavier tasks dramatically, for example - moving my project to a database. At one point, it cost me $11.76 for one action.

You should request a credit for that - if you raise support ticket, you should get it. You don’t need to use Max, Pro is fine, but Mini is no good for anything.

Hi, I’m sorry to report whatever changes have been made, they make ZERO difference, perhaps it’s got even worse

I’ve been using V0 and had great results mostly, except for this same credit issue, which also occured about 4 months ago.

I’ve just given a prompt to create a button and popup a modal with subject, description fields and a Submit button - $4.25 - this should cost at most about 20-25cents. I know how to prompt effectively - it appears the model is trying do far too much, costing more also. I will be looking for a refund on this.

I suggest to you this credit usage is a very very serious problem for which we’ve had no resolution, as it stands it is not possible to build anything when it’s costing 10x expected and users are affected / complaining.

Here is my chat: https://v0.app/chat/easy-pin-api-utility-8-pIibVPwlRhR

please kindly provide any update - this has been going on over a week.

thanks

Thank you for sharing this feedback, Alex! As I shared, the team are currently looking into further optimisations.

Yes - please go ahead and raise a refund.
