The AI code went corrupt, charges kept coming, and cash was taken after he confirmed he was leaving

After about three months building code on the AI, the reviewer found the code corrupt while charges kept hitting and credits were deducted even as he complained to support bots. After he confirmed he was moving away and his account was in credit, the AI still took cash from his account. Roughly 200 support emails produced no fix.

This one went wrong. Read what happened so you don’t hit the same problem.

How it works

  1. Build code on the AI for about three months
  2. Code is corrupt
  3. Charges and credit deductions continue during complaints
  4. Reviewer confirms he is leaving, account in credit
  5. The AI takes cash from his account anyway
  6. About 200 bot emails, nothing resolved

Why it’s worth knowing

The failure stacked: corrupt code, continued charges during the complaint itself, then a cash withdrawal after cancellation was confirmed.
