While generating my application, an error occurs and a popup appears stating that the issue can be resolved using v0 FREE, implying that no credits should be charged. However, even when following this option, an extremely high amount of credits is deducted from my wallet. This happens repeatedly, forcing me to constantly recharge and spend money.
If the popup explicitly says the issue can be resolved with v0 FREE, then no credits should be deducted from my wallet. A “FREE” option should not consume paid credits under any circumstances.
Start generating the application normally.
An error occurs during the generation process.
A popup appears saying the issue can be resolved with v0 FREE.
Proceed as instructed using the FREE option.
Credits are still deducted from my wallet — often in very large amounts.
This behavior is consistent and reproducible.
