I ran out of room in a shared “transfer" folder on my Dropbox account because a client was dumping everything in there (and when I would remove files I told him I already had, he would re-add them), so when I told the client that my account was full and I could not receive any more files, the client told me that I needed to upgrade. I told the client that wasn’t an investment I was able to make right now (I have an impending wedding, of which he is already aware, and the last time I met with him, I had just come from shopping at Goodwill).
Client: What?! It’s only like $100 for the whole year! Come on….
Me: Yes, and I am unable to make that investment at this time.
Client: Really?! It’s not THAT much, just upgrade!
Me: Unfortunately, I’m not able to right now. My other clients don’t use that much space, so I usually don’t need to pay for a larger account, and I can’t afford to pay for the upgrade for just one client. The only way I could do it would be if you would like to reimburse me for the cost; then I could upgrade but would have to bill you for it. But that’s up to you.
Client: What?! You’ve got to be kidding me! I can’t believe you just asked me to do that. You can’t expect someone to just drop money like that.
