> You're currently signed in to your G Suite account. Switch to your personal Google Account to upgrade. Ugh... Google never misses an opportunity to shit on its most ardent supporters - the people with personal G-Suite domains.

Very true, this is the case among many of their products. For example Google Home is not fully working on G Suite accounts, ridiculous.

  I had to switch back to Spotify a while ago to give my wife access to the premium I was already paying for via the family plan because Google Play Music doesn't support family plans for gsuite accounts. If they addressed this issue I would probably consider consolidating Dropbox, Spotify, and maybe some other stuff into a single Google One subscription but I suppose grandfathered free gsuite accounts are a low priority for these things.

Organizational accounts have a different storage plan they can use that's more suited to their needs. This is only for personal accounts. And no, you don't have a personal account, which hopefully you knew 5 years ago when that happened.

  The pedantry doesn't help the customer. Your correction reminds me of the bureaucracy in the movie Brazil. Reasons may be justified internally but a shitty experience for customers is still a shitty experience.

I have just completed a migration... here's my guide and the background: https://medium.com/@buro9/one-account-all-of-google-4d2929066951 https://medium.com/@buro9/one-account-all-of-google-4d292906... In the process I found many small bugs, but also a huge one... if you have 200GB of photos in G Suite, share & copy to a Gmail account (G One) and then break the share... you have the 200GB of photos but Google One storage will report usage as 0GB.
