My account keeps saying it's full - but it isn't
Hi - I have a 6.3 GB basic account with less that 1.2 GB of data in it, but I keep getting notifications saying the account is full, and it isn't syncing. I've double checked my folders and cleaned o...
My account size has been bouncing around as I try to delete whatever is in the current dropbox.
It's gone up as high as 10GB and as lower as 4.8GB, its now back to 5.6GB.
It seems to be completely out of line with what is actually in Dropbox 594MB.
Very frustrating.
It's seems to be a con to me. Dropbox is making the free account unusable.

Dropbox StaffThanks Hannah- that was exactly the problem. I could find no trace of that in my account.
It doesn't explain anywhere what is consuming the memory.
I assume this is when I stick in a memory card and for some reason Dropbox opens up and asks to back it up.
I don't even know where or why that was turned on. I don't ever remember allow Dropbox to make requests like that.
It's probably a way of targetting free users to choke up their usage and force conversion to a paid account.
Any way a lesson learned.
I can't find a place to contact Dropbox with a problem.
My subscription is the Dropbox Plus, I pay $18.49 Australian per month.
Current Storage Space is 2.5 GB
I get reminders that my Storage Limit has Exceeded Limit and to upgrade to the 3TB (2000 GB) space
Yes it has exceeded the 2GB Free Limit
I already PAY for the next Level of Storage.
I can't contact Dropbox to sort this problem out- Megan
