Hey Rachael321, thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to the Community!
Shared folders in Dropbox take up space on each account that's a member of the share so in this case, you might want to ask them to open a file request for you.
This way you'll be able to upload back to their account without impacting your own quota.

Hello, I've been sent an upload request from a client and I'm uploading a file 60GB in size however it's proving extremely slow to upload despite both me and my client having 1GB internet speeds (we both plug into our modems via ethernet to ensure a close to 1GB internnet connection). Is there an upload limit when uploading files via an upload request link?

Hey GregMichael - sorry to hear about this.
I just wanted to mention that there's no limit when uploading to file requests.
Have you tried clearing your browser's cache, using another browser (preferably with no extensions or plugins running) or even rebooting your computer and/or internet router?
