No additional space on Business Advanced anymore.
Dear community,
I'm here to advice that the support have been denying us additional space for two weeks, first telling us that there was a momentary problem, then that we had made a request before the 7 days, then again (after waiting 7 days) that there is a problem which however is not written by Nowhere.
We're really worried about that because they don't give us any timelines and the fact that the problem doesn't exist on the dropbox status page and that nobody else talks about it seems a bit suspicious.
I don't like writing these posts but we are really worried don't you think? Are any of you having similar problems? do they only have it with us?

Yea, Dropbox will solve it by making you have to pay for more storage because these datahoarding plex pirates tried to upload petabytes of data. No business can survive with that going on. First Amazon Drive removed unlimited, then Google Workspace, now Dropbox. 😁

I'm pretty sure they can fight this battle and don't need some random crying about a few datahoarders abusing the unlimited storage system.
I hope you're sending the same to Box, Backblaze, and the other online storage solutions too.

Monthly API limit. Good luck. And hello from that rclone thread 🤔

It's not fair Dropbox was brought down for the honest paying customers by people wanting to hoard copies of movies and TV.

box-com recently also came up with an unlimited plan with three users.
It is even cheaper than Dropbox. They only have file-size-limit which rclone also handles.
They see money behind this, otherwise they wouldn't do this.
And they have the horders calculated in. This whole parade here by Tomato is helping with nothing only stirring up people with baseless acusations for no reason.

Then why are you getting so butthurt over Dropbox then if you own all your storage and don't use the service ?
- Tomato25153 years agoExplorer | Level 4
OK, then show us what is in the files 🤣

It's been discussed numerous times in the datahoarder community https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/
And no, I do not use Dropbox or any cloud storage. All local. 😁 I OWN my data.

"
I'm saying these users have 200, 300 TB of encrypted data. That points to one thing; copies of movies and TV."
That is bull**bleep**. Pardon my French.

@Tomato2515
You know an awful lot about this for being an innocent bystander 🤔Sure you're not one of the 'many' users hoarding data for their plex servers?
