Q: Hi I stacked 3 codes yesterday but am now concerned this was not a good idea.
I didn't want to leave this as a review in case I am wrong.
I currently have an account with sync.com. They do not have bandwidth limits, only storage, and I have 2TB. I share a few of my folders with an assistant who has a free sync.com account. Because they are my folders in my space, my assistant can download the files, edit them etc and they will sync back to my folder and the storage all comes from my account. So, even though the files are more than her free account limit, there is no issue because they are only counted as from my storage.
Now, with icedrive, there is the added disadvantage of bandwidth being metered. I was ok with that (sort of), but it seems that the folder option above just can't work because according to the help section, if I share folders, the person I am sharing with will have their bandwidth debited for downloading. If that person is on a free account, the bandwidth is very limited. Am I correct on this (in which case I probably need to refund) or am I missing something here? Also, can you kindly confirm that storage in the above case only gets charged once (ie my account)....thank you :)
Manyt hanks!

When you share files the bandwidth is deducted from the user which downloads the file.
However, if their bandwidth is depleted, or they do not have an account, the bandwidth will be deducted from your personal allocation. This helps maintain the fairest balance possible.

Lifetime accounts are only charged once, yes.

That's a bit confusing then since I got this reply from your support yesterday:
The bandwidth is only for public files, not internal shares
We didnt want to include bandwidth in the deal because its pretty moot, we were about to change it but appsumo wanted to keep it in there
