iPhone iCloud storage says not enough but 150gb left

[Guacamole]

Hi ,
I upgraded from 50gb to 200 gb yesterday because I got the warning not enough iCloud left .
Now I’m getting the same warning even though it says I have used only 48gb out of 200gb
I have restarted the phone and still the same

What to do ? It won’t upload some photos
iPhone 13 iOS 15.7

Call Apple support. I had to do that once with a storage issue on iCloud and they had to reset something on their end that fixed it.

Apple Support

getsupport.apple.com

(click "Show" under "Apps & Services" and then click on iCloud)

That notification pops up when exactly? The problem is if your phone is trying to create a back-up that is too big for your current space allotment. Hence, it throws that message.

I know cause that happened to me, and it forced me to go from 50GB to 200GB.

the notification was on Photos, at the bottom , it said 110 items could not be uploaded , not enough iCloud space.. (despite that I had about 150gb free)

I called Apple support, we went through my iPhone settings, safari data was taking a lot of space, we cleared that up..also iCloud Drive was taken a lot of space..
after all that I realised that hundreds of photos were missing from my iPhone, although they were still on iCloud.. so I had to get them back.. I'm confused about this, to sure why so many were gone,, now I have them all back.. I log out from my Apple ID, restarted the phone and all is good now

I think the problem was that my phone was (apparently) full, at some point I only had about 4 gb left of storage , now I have about 70gb so something was taken too much space on my phone for some reason..

I would advise you turn off iCloud Photo. Let the backup do its thing.
