I’ve been having the same issue these past few days—endless retry prompts every day. Today I saw a reply saying this problem only affects Ultra users, while Pro accounts don’t have this issue. This afternoon after I switched to my Pro account, everything worked fine. Both Gemini 3.1 Pro and Claude 4.6 ran without problems. I’ve been using it for three hours now and haven’t received a single “Error Our servers are experiencing high traffic right now, please try again in a minute” message.
If you have both a Pro and an Ultra account, give it a try. If it’s true that Pro accounts work normally while Ultra accounts keep requiring endless retries, that’s really terrible.
There’s another issue with Pro right now: once you use up your quota, the refresh time may change from 5 hours to 7 days. Let’s just say Google has imposed different restrictions on different membership tiers.
