Storage space

Hello. 

 

I keep receiving emails from Dropbox saying that I'm almost out of space and that I'm using up 80% of my space, when I'm actually using less than 10%. 

 

 

Note that it says above that I have only 2 BG of space, when I actually have 15.38...

 

 

Can someone please tell me what to do? Thanks!

    Hi Plinio Bosco, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    Could you attach a screenshot showing that you're out of storage on your account?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

        Thanks for the info. Are you still able to upload and sync files on your account normally?
