Be very careful when using the OpenAI API. My access to the API has been blocked for now four days without any help because of an open invoice of 76 cents.
The problem is they didn't even try to charge this amount. The error is on their side and I even have a positive balance because I just deposited money successfully. So they blocked my access for no reason at all, and none of my apps that use this API work anymore. It's impossible to get help because they don't react to my messages.
So what do we learn from this? Always have a second LLM as a backup and always...
