I am currently experiencing repeated 429 “Quota Exceeded” errors when calling the Gemini 2.5 Pro model, even though my account is on Tier 1 (Paid) and my actual usage is well under 1% of the available quota. Details: Model: gemini-2.5-pro Billing Tier: Tier 1 RPM / TPM / RPD limits: RPM…

Hey All, We’ve pushed a fix that should resolve the problem. Please let us know if you are still experiencing any issues. Thanks for your patience while we sorted this out!

Same issue here too. 429. Paid tier. Looks like system bug, it treats as free account. Can moderator solve this?

Happens to me since thread was created. Same case on Tier 1 and free one on different google accounts, so it looks like tier doesn’t matter here.

If you read above moderator actually answered that they are aware. Doesn’t mean they actually do something to fix that. I believe this issue affects thousands of people.

Sad that especially Google with its server capacity cannot handle the rush. The problems exist everywhere at the moment, especially sad that paying customers are also affected. Perhaps it was not so smart to make so many major releases in such a short time.

Hey All, This issue has been mitigated. Please reach out to us if you continue to experience it. Thank you for your patience!

It is happening for me daily on my account and it is losing us money since we are running a saas product over gemini, we need a quick fix, everything was going fine for the past couple of month until the day you released gemini 3 and nano banana

Did anyone find a reasonable solution for this? I am getting the same error and clearly I am not even near the limits. edit might be helpful: As a last resort I changed the auth way from API key to google account and it seems that the problem is resolved for now.

Facing the exact same issue. Started happening the last hour or so.
