Got "You've reached your rate limit" on Gemini 2.5 Pro

Are they doing something internally or swapping models or something? I used Gemini 2.5 Pro 2 days ago and now when I’m using the same model it stays “reached your rate limit”.

From what I understood, 2.5 Thinking has limit of 2 RPM/50 RPD but not able to understand how I have hit the limits when I even not used it for a whole day and starting fresh now. Is there some limit in per prompt window also? because it works fine in new prompt.

no guys, it doesn’t. just confirmed now. :expressionless_face:

Same issue – even new prompts now show ‘rate limit reached’ despite minimal usage. Confirmed it’s not working in fresh sessions either. The documented 2 RPM/50 RPD seems miscalculated ?. Could there be unannounced model-side throttling? Would appreciate official clarity on how limits are enforced…Thanks!

And when I ask why it is in the other flash versions it says "Just a sed…) and keep whirling!

Also experiencing this, no idea why. Between this and the CPU usage / extreme lag, it feels like something was broken in the last few days.

It does seem like happening for past few days only. Never faced it for basically any model before. Don’t know how come 40k tokens are freezing the whole UI and lagging like crazy now.

@Corkster52 did the same, got nothing reasonable from it.

Did anyone get a reply out of this? I’ve been having the same issue for the past 3 days now

I’m having the same problems and also for about the same time. I guess Google may have underestimated demand on Gemini 2.5 Pro. The claimed free rate now is 25 req/day but I’m getting barely 5

Same issue, hoping it gets resolved soon
