My account is like 10 years old and I have 37GB of storage, but it just dropped to 22GB without any notification. 

 

Any ideas?

Hey @fastfreddy; welcome to the Community!

 

To be honest, it sounds like some additional space you had earned through a promotion - a coupon for example- just expired and that's why you see the drop in your account's quota. 

 

Can you take a look at your account's plan tab and let me know what is reported there?

 

Thanks!

Further down the page you'll see a section detailing the space you've earned, which will also show any space that has expired.
