What was announced
On 2026-09-04, the announcement said some Plus and Business users who would not get access to Astra that day would receive a banked reset by end of day. It also said users who created an account by 8pm PT would receive it.
A banked reset is a credit the account holder chooses when to use. The announcement is not evidence that every account received an immediate refill.
Who it applies to
The stated group was some Plus and Business users without Astra access that day. The post also included users creating an account by the stated cutoff. It did not say that every Plus or Business account qualified.
What the source does not establish
The post gave an end-of-day delivery window, without an exact delivery time or a timezone for that window. The 8pm PT time was the account-creation cutoff, not a stated delivery time. The post does not confirm delivery to any particular account or specify when the banked credit expires.
