    Hi Armstrong69, I hope you're doing well!

     

    You can try upgrading to the Basic Extra plan using this link. 

     

    However, keep in mind that at the moment, it's only limited to a small number of people.

     

    If the link doesn't help, let me know and I'll be more than happy to help!

Hi Megan,

I'm in a similar boat, where 2TB is WAY too much. Can I please also have access to the Basic Extra plan?

Thanks

    Hi jimmle, could you let me know if you're able to access this link, while logged into your account, to upgrade to the Basic Extra plan?

      Hi Jay,

      Same message-My account isn't eligible. It's worth mentioning that my account is currently subscribed to the Plus (2 TB) plan, with a scheduled cancellation on my next renewal in September. My current plan is too expensive for too much storage space- I'm looking to downsize.

        Thanks for the info, the plan should only be available to users on a Basic plan, so it isn't possible to upgrade from a Plus plan. 

         

        Once your account downgrades in September, you can try to upgrade to this plan again.
