It should not be blocking me since I have credits available. **Expected behavior:** v0 should allow me to continue using the product and consume from my available credit balance without forcing a plan upgrade. I’ve attached screenshots showing both my billing page (with available credits) and the upgrade prompt I’m receiving. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a known workaround? Sean (@heystu) · 2026-03-06 Are you on a Paid plan, Free plan, or part of a Team? Looking at the message though, it is saying it is a complimentary upgrade and you wont be charged if you click Upgrade. At least how I am reading that message. Community Backoffice (@community-backoffice) · 2026-03-06 Hey! To help debug your v0 project, could you share your **v0 chat link**? It looks like `https://v0.app/chat/...` — you can copy it from your browser's address bar while in the chat. You'll also need to unlist the chat so our team can view it — here's how: https://v0.app/docs/sharing This helps the team reproduce what you're seeing much faster. Thanks! Geovanny Gil (@elevenestudio) · 2026-03-06 To clarify: I was originally on the **Free plan**. I got access to the Premium plan by redeeming a promo code that Vercel provided in partnership with **Platzi** after completing their v0 course. That’s why it shows as a complimentary plan at $0/mo — it’s not a self-purchased upgrade. After redeeming the code, my credits appeared ($20 gifted + $5 monthly) and the plan changed to Premium. However, despite having $25.00 in available credits, v0 still shows the upgrade prompt when I try to continue a project. Regarding your note about the “you won’t be charged” message — I did see that, but the modal is still blocking my workflow and asking me to start a **Team plan at $30/user/month**, which doesn’t seem right for someone who already has a Premium plan with credits available. Geovanny Gil (@elevenestudio) · 2026-03-06 Sure! Here’s the link to the v0 chat where the issue occurs: https://v0.app/chat/brand-identity-management-portal-roCU5D9Ispu?ref=WVH4TQ I’ve followed the steps in the docs to unlist it so your team can view it.

Por ejemplo no me deja comprar créditos adicionales ni funciona la autorecarga y cuando lo intento me dice que tengo pasarme al plan premium que es lo que deberíamos tener
