Re: Why is Dropbox asking me to upgrade my account?

I'm already paying for Dropbox. I know what I want. Dropbox is frequently asking to upgrade to the family plan.

Stop begging me to pay more for a plan I don't even need.

    Good day

     

    Dropbox is saying my storage is full but I have only used 22% of storage. They say they have stopped all syncing but I am fully paid up.

    Hey there, Dominic Mitchell, let's jump right into this!

     

    Based on what you mentioned, it sounds as if you received an email about this, right? If so, then is it possible you have two different Dropbox accounts? 

     

    As a first step, can you check your plan page, and let me know what it reports there? Do you also have any shared folders, that could potentially be taking up space on your account?

     

    Let me know more!

    Hi Dominic Mitchell, could you possible attach a screenshot with the message, asking you to upgrade? 

     

    Just make sure none of your personal info is shown there. Thanks!
