this message usually means you hit a short-term rate limit, not your monthly quota. the usage bar on your profile updates with some delay, so it can easily show something like 10–15% while the backend has already throttled you for a burst of requests. copilot has two separate limits:
the error you posted matches the second one. it usually clears on its own after a short cooldown. if it keeps happening even with light usage, it might be the extension sending a lot of background requests without you noticing. give it a bit of time and it should work again. if it doesn’t, try restarting the editor or checking if any plugin is spamming copilot in the background. hope this helps! and if it solves it, feel free to mark the thread as answered so others can find it later. |

I am also getting it very frequently when assigning multiple issues to coding agent, only coding agent is using the requests. any way to increase the limits like a higher plan. it's really frustrating and negates the purpose of an autonomous agent if i have to come online after every 2 hours and restart the agent. i understand rate-limits are necessary but then at least have a way to schedule auto-retry for coding agents if rate-limited after the cooling period. |

Can more transparency be added so we can keep using your api instead of having to look elsewhere? If you added - you need to stay under x requests per minute or wait 10min/1h etc to continue it would be a much better devx |

I am getting this too and it seems like a you problem. I have 1 instance of Copilot CLI running and doing 1 thing yet I bump into this maybe once or twice a day. It leaves me mid job so I have to dig around and figure out what is now half done or broken and I suspect it is eating a premium request. I don't have any control over how much the AI makes calls but you guys do. You could at least handle this gracefully instead of crashing out mid request. Paying Pro+. I glance over and I see a page of these. ` ✓ Edit ThreeStageFFTConfig.cs ✓ Edit DebugCarryFusedIsolated.cs ✗ Model call failed: {"message":"Sorry, you have exceeded your Copilot token usage.

Same problem here. I get a lot of rate-limited with ONLY ONE AI working on the project. |

I've run into this and have yet to find the setting that lets me pay for more. Please take my org's $$ and let me continue. I instead end up stalled halfway through the plan. Has anyone tried BYO model to get around this? |

I'm running into this too, and even waiting several minutes, I still get the same rate limiting error with a copilot enterprise account. Your terms of service do not show any rate limit values, just that you will be rate limited if you violate TOS. |

They are apparently throttling Pro accounts, making the chat completely unusable. Terrible management and product experience. |

Yeah, this is nonsense. I'm here cause I'm currently wasting time waiting for the throttling to reset. I gave it one task: to refactor a class that had grown into a god class. I've hit the rate limit twice on the same task now. Maybe it should look at the request scope and at least say "Sorry Dave, I can't do that" rather than the unfriendly/useless way it's handling this issue. I've got a pro plan and there's a lot of credit left on it, so this is unacceptable. Do better. |

I don 't think it is ever going to be removed. I was supposed to be not rate limited anymore 17 hours yet I am still rate limited. I had received a rate limit of 51 hours: which means wait until 2026-04-16T05:10:41.482Z It is now 2026-04-16T22:15:00Z (16:15PM local time) and I'm still rate limited. When I try later again I get: So I wait few hours and then have it try again. Now it says: And no, I haven't done anything with it in the mean time. Just been waiting. |

UPDATE: It looks like it's starting to work! 2 requests and it didn't hit the rate-limit on the Pro+ subscription! Don't shout it out and hope for proper functionality! |

I am also rate limited for 3 days :D FYI, I am on Pro+ and have only hit 14.0% usage FOR THE MONTH so far. Completely unbelieveable! I am not a heavy user at all.

Was going for a little bit, and now rate limited again for 1 hour and 2 minutes. Only thing really I've been having it do is review code. That's it. Once reviewed I went to Codex to resolve issues, and once Codex resolved went back to CoPilot to do new review. I do not see how with these rate limits anyone can even get close to 1500 premium requests unless your prompts are like: "Analyze the code in function x between lines z and y). Or "Change this variable on this line to this" so that each prompts ends up a very simple request instead of the push to have AI accomplish a complete task. |

copilot pro+ here, my usage is very stable and reached 50% at Apr 15. But at Apr 16, I received rate limit and had to wait 3 days for continuation. Insane... |

For me nothing is gonna change. I think there isn't any issue (for them), they're strictly applying their rules (https://docs.github.com/en/github-models/use-github-models/prototyping-with-ai-models#rate-limits (Pro+ could corresponds to Copilot Enterprise in the table)), so i downgraded from Pro+ to Pro (There is no reason to pay four times more if I cannot use the product four times as much). We've been talking about this for 4 or 5 days now, don't you think we would have already received help from Microsoft if it were a problem? |
