Ongoing difficulty with Cloud storage space warnings (ATI 2018)

Thread needs solution

After a completely satisfactory experience with ATI 2017, I upgraded to ATI 2018 about six weeks ago.  At the time of the upgrade, the amount of cloud storage I had utilized was ~400 GB of my alloted 1.2 TB space.  Immediately after the upgrade, I began to receive alerts that I had exceeded my allotted 1.2 TB space by 150 GB.

If I use the online connection and perform the recommended "clean" procedures (deleting files more than one month old, deleting previously deleted files), my account information shows that I have the correct ~400 GB of stored information.  After the next cloud backup (which, according to the ATI 2018 "Activity" tab, shows that an addition 1-2 GB of information was added), I immediately receive another alert stating that I am again using 1.35 TB of cloud storage space.

This has happened repeatedly over the past six weeks.  After about 10 days of hoping that the upgrade would right itself, I contacted Technical Support.  Unfortunately, after providing the requested log files, I am now told that "development" will work on this, but that it will be another month before I am provided with a "status" report.  This kind of service seems to me to qualify as no service at all--simply very disappointing and disgusting, from a company that has previously been quite responsive.

Am I the only one in the world having this experience?  Any ideas about what to do on my own, since apparently I am left hanging by "customer service"?

Thanks.

Larry, welcome to these User Forums.

I am not aware of any widespread issues of the type you are experiencing from this topic information.

We have no access to the Cloud servers or any logs related to them etc, so very little we can do to advise you further on this other than to have to wait on Acronis technical support to get back to you.

The only other suggestion would be to drop a PM to Renata Gubaydullina | Product manager, Acronis True Image and ask for her to review the support case you have open, and perhaps ask if your Cloud storage could be increased (at their expense) temporarily until the issue is resolved?

Hello Larry,

We've extended your Cloud storage, so you can continue using the product while the development is fixing the issue.
