    It sounds like instead of being invited to join their Business Team account, you were invited to a shared folder instead, and shared folders take up space in your own account, even if you aren't the owner.

     

    If they actually have a Business account, you'll want the Team Admin to send you an invitation to join the team. Upon acceptance, your account will be merged into the Business account (making them the owner of your account) and you'll gain access to any of the team resources that the admin assigns to you.
