I had high hopes for Codeium, but my experience has been very disappointing. I accidentally forgot to cancel my subscription, there was no notification or reminder—and was charged despite not having used any credits. I reached out twice with a polite refund request, explaining the situation, but never received a single reply. It feels like they’re intentionally ignoring, which is extremely unprofessional.
Codeium is awesome! The AI context, commit generation, etc. are all very useful, the autocomplete is free, unlimited, and super fast. Everything is very context aware and flawless. Love it!
I've been test-driving Codeium lately, and I've gotta say, I'm really impressed. As someone who's dabbled with a bunch of AI coding tools - GitHub Copilot, customizing continue.dev with custom language models+prompt, playing with aider, claude dev - Codeium stands out from the crowd in a different way. What I love most is how seamlessly it fits into my workflow. It's super intuitive and just gets what I'm trying to do. The "refactor" feature in the right-click menu is so good. It's quick and spot-on, often understanding my intentions better than I could explain them. While other tools offer great flexibility, Codeium strikes an awesome balance between power and ease of use. It doesn't need the setup that some other tools do, but it's incredibly smart and gets things done.
Very poor customer support, non existant if anything! After latest change my account has bugged out, and I wasn't able to use any of my purchased tokens. Contacting support, other than being told to restart the app and try to re-log was less than helpfull especially when there's many more cases like me on discord. Haven't heard back from them for the last 4 days. I will excersice my rights and get refund for tokens I am not available to use, and I would highly recommend everybody else to research for better service, there is a lot of better alternatives that actually have active customer support.
I have been giving clear instructions to create a repair logging system in my shop. I am not a programmer, I just have the ideas in my mind, at first it seems to generate things well. although it forgets features that I asked for, then I have to repeat them. but it starts to break things. If I ask it to modify something or create a new feature then it breaks something else. It is a vicious circle, I should have my application ready by now, but it is making me go around in circles between development and repair. It is making me spend credits. This is what this is about_ I have already tried it with different technologies, Python, js, java and it always makes the same mistakes. It starts to break and needs to be repaired, and when it fixes something it breaks something else, it does not maintain consistency with the entire project. I contacted customer service, no solution for my case. I'm not saying this isn't a good tool, just that it's not how they sell it. It's not for everyone. This isn't going to help you if you're not a programmer. You can create applications without code, that is, without entering lines of code, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't know what you're doing. This is still for programmers, not for people without knowledge like me.
DON'T USE THIS SCAM! It creates bugs and destroys working code in pure intention to force you to spend more money and more and more! IT WAISTS YOUR TIME AND YOUR MONEY!!!! STAY AWAY!!!
It's simply a great tool that continues to enhance my coding efficiency.
