I signed up to a z.ai max account, $144. Hardly been able to use it as it 429s on most requests. They’re also refusing to refund me.

Self-promo but you should try our service synthetic.new. We generally have up-to-date open-source LLMs on the sub, and we have GLM-5.2 :) Perf+stability should be wayyy better than zai.

Even as a GLM z.ai fan, I wouldn't pay for their plans. They are just way worse values than gpt or anthropic plans, in terms of both usage and capabilities.

same here. Barely usable due to API connections issues.

And when i can use it, it just drains the quota 5 times faster than codex or claude.

Their plan is a scam

My experience as well unfortunately :(
