Hey thejanman, welcome to our Community!
Referral space is indeed permanent, and does not get removed from your available quota, so let's see what we can find out.
Where did you initially see that your space was down to 2 GB?
If you go to your account settings here, how much space does it report?
If it's a different amount, is it possible that you have a second free account with just 2 GB instead?
Let me know what you find.

Same thing JUST happens to me.
I am using the same account.

Hey free4cat00, sorry to hear about this.
Can you please let us know what your plan tab reports about your quota at the moment?
Also, was the additional space earned through referrals or another promotion perhaps?
- free4cat002 years agoExplorer | Level 4I’ve been using the basic free account since I register way far in the time (early adopter) and I invited more than 100 users, and that’s why I got 40 Gb free for years.
