    Ok... Im fine now. I gave the hell up. I deleted my entire account. Went back in and "signed up".
    That worked.
    What a straight up **bleep**ty company. NEVER again!

Oh look. ANOTHER LIE! Allegedly I have 170gb of "backups". However, when I go into Backups.... As you can see... Its disabled and nothing is visible there for me to delete.
Advice... Be more like Google Drive. What do I do from here?
Im about to just go set up a fake google account. Set up a second FAKE dropbox account and share the files with the client that way. 
My only concern now... Is your company has backups of my personal stuff and I dont know what it is and I cant find an option to delete. Thats not right! How do we fix this?

    That image helps nad shows that you have backups set - the "Mac" disableed one at the side. 

    Click on that and delete that and you should get the space back
