Yes, I am having this problem too. File Request folders used to work great, but now others are having trouble uploading and when I test it I am getting a "you don't have access" screen when I try to access the link in a new browser. It's incredibly frustrating for everyone involved.
Shared folders doesn't work as it maxes out the space on the collaborators accounts. I pay for DB every month so that uploads are smooth and easy and now it's just a headache. No one has this kind of time to waste.
Please fix.

Have you noticed if this happens only with specific people or with all your recipients?
Do you have a screenshot of the error, so we can have a visual?
