Account in read-only mode

Question

I missed the deadline to get my Free Bitbucket account below the 1GB threshold (I thought we had until the last day of April, i.e. today). I have gone through and deleted repositories from my workspace to get below the 1GB limit, but my account is still in read-only mode. How can I fix this?

Hey @knorthrop

Deleting the repository will indeed reduce the workspace storage usage. I can see that your workspace size usage is now around 800MB++. You can check this under your workspace settings as well.

I went ahead and just deleted that repository, so my account should now be under the limit, can you verify please?

Hey @knorthrop

There are still large files in your 1.1 GB repository. To further reduce them please check our guide here and use BFG tools to remove the large files. This should help reduce your repository size further.
