Storage size went from 5gb to 2gb and now I cannot access my files.

Storage size went from 5gb to 2gb and now I cannot access my files. I upgraded to a plus account in hopes to find the files or access support. Neither of which happened...    How do you reach this ...

This was sent in 2019. I have always had 5GBs of space to my knowledge. 

 

 

Do you think that my files were deleted? It seems like the platform has gone through many changes.

      Hey Mark! 

       

      When I checked "events" I am only seeing the updates from today. I am not sure when I would have used it in the past year. I can only access as far back as Nov. 18th 2020. 

       

      I have had my account for much much longer than that though.

        Is it showing any events before today? 

         

        Is your account showing any files at all?

         

        Have you logged in in the past year?
