Rackspace files not being deleted

I have been a paid subscriber in the past, but I let it lapse earlier this year.

I have found my Rackspace account increasing month on month, when most of the activity should be fairly constant (UpdraftPlus set to keep limited numbers of backups). I have checked all the settings, and UpdraftPlus is still sending backups to RackSpace.

Investgation shows, however, that there are thousands of files in RackSpace which should have been deleted.

I’ve taken one test site to check this. It had backup sets with dates in 2019, 2018, and 2017. Rackspace has files into 2016.

I cleared down all backup sets for 2017 (yesterday), Checked RackSpace, and there are still thousands of files for 2017.

Is there a problem with the RackSpace code in UpdraftPlus?

Is there something RackSpace have changed which prevents the files being deleted by UpdraftPlus?

Would appreciate some help.

My checks suggest I can cut the RackSpace fees by about 65% … then I can afford the UpdraftPlus licence (if it’s working properly).

Many thanks, David
