No additional space on Business Advanced

Dear community, I'm here to advice that the support have been denying us additional space for two weeks, first telling us that there was a momentary problem, then that we had made a request before...
Dropbox for Business
Quota
Storage

We all also hope for the best.
 
Our advantage is, that we were able to migrate everything to Dropbox and now have a few TB free.
We can wait and see what Dropbox will make. But I can't recommend it at the moment.
 
Another problem with Dropbox, the API from Dropbox sometimes loses connection. And so have we Files Uploaded with 0 kb size.
Upload Speed pro File is between 12 up to 20 MB's. By Google have no API problems and Upload Speed from 120 up to 250 MB's.
Dropbox is also significantly slower from Speed. For us not Problem. Only the api errors are disturbing

    Thank for you Reply, we are already using last version. Is really annoying.

      then it is a permission issue because once i started using 1.6+ the issue was resolved.

      100% not an API issue  🙂

        That can be a good thing, 98% of the files work great, 2% 0 kb don't work.

         

        Edit:

        I show of us Server, it's Version v1.63.0 😀
