Messages about needing upgrade my account

I have been getting messages for a few months about I need to upgrade even though When I check my originally free account that through referrals I earned enough for 19 GB.

 

How to resolve this?

    Those messages are likely triggered when you reach a certain percentage of your total capacity. Just ignore them if you still have space left or have no plans to upgrade.

      Thanks, just a bit annoying, that they seem to be going back on their original offer - help get more users, you get more free space. With many businesses changing their pricing models, I get worried that the agreement has changed or will change with little notice. 

       

      Have a great one.
