What to Do When Codespaces 50 hour is Not Received After Payment

Why Your Codespaces 50 Hour Might Not Arrive After USDT Payment

You paid via USDT (TRC20 or ERC20) for a 50-hour Codespaces plan, but the credits never showed up. This is frustrating, but often fixable. The problem usually isn't the seller—it's the payment confirmation delay or a mismatch in your account region.

Step 1: Check Your Transaction on the Blockchain

First, verify your USDT transaction went through. Use a block explorer (like Tronscan for TRC20 or Etherscan for ERC20). If the transaction is unconfirmed or pending, wait 10-30 minutes. USDT on TRC20 typically confirms faster (under 5 minutes), while ERC20 can take longer during high gas times.

Step 2: Confirm the Seller Received the Funds

Once confirmed, the seller must manually assign the Codespaces hours to your GitHub account. Some sellers automate this, but many (especially smaller vendors) do it manually. If you paid to the correct wallet address and the transaction is confirmed, contact the seller with your TXID and GitHub username. Most reputable sellers respond within 1-2 hours.

Step 3: Check Your GitHub Account Region and Plan

Codespaces 50-hour plans are region-locked. If your GitHub account is set to a different region (e.g., EU vs US), the credits might not apply properly. Go to your GitHub billing settings and ensure your country matches the plan you bought. If not, update it and ask the seller to reassign.

Step 4: Use a Different Payment Method (If Possible)

Some sellers only accept USDT via TRC20 because it's cheaper and faster. If you used ERC20 and it's taking too long, consider asking the seller to refund and re-pay via TRC20. However, not all sellers offer refunds—check their policy first.

Step 5: Escalate with the Marketplace

If the seller is unresponsive or the issue persists for over 24 hours, open a dispute on the marketplace where you bought (e.g., a Telegram group, a forum, or a platform like Plati.Market). Provide proof of payment (TXID, screenshot, conversation logs). Most marketplaces side with buyers if the seller cannot prove delivery.
