I suddenly get a notification that basic dropbox is almost full (1.8 GB of 2 GB), because it is saving everything to cloud.....I don't want anything saved to cloud, but I can find no way to set it to stop this.  I asked in CHAT three times, but he never once answered me....maybe because he is in SALES.....?

Chat wont help you because its exactly that - Sales and they arent trained in it. Plus as a free user you do not have access to chat support. 

 

You need to turn off Backup to stop the folders syncing. Have a look at https://help.dropbox.com/organize/how-to-manage-dropbox-backup
