    When you downgrade data is not removed or deleted as long as you downgrade and do not close account. Have you checked what www.dropbox.com/events shows? Note you may have issues if your account now is not large enough to hold the data

    Resubscribing wont help - as that just gives more capacity to the account. 

     

    What is Events showing?

    If they are deleted how long ago did it say deleted? 

     

    The only way to restore it is via that events tab and following this. BUT the deletion must have been less than 30 days ago. The account plan you are on is what counts towards the deletion window. Upgrading will not change that. If it was over 30 days ago they are not recoverable - even by Dropbox staff.

    Hi there, Ade86, sorry to hear about that! 

     

    Would you mind sending over your ticket number reference, in order to locate it on our system? 

     

    I'll be waiting for your response!

    Thanks for that Ade86!

     

    It seems the issue you mentioned has to do with your Vault files specifically, is that correct? 

     

    In any case, it seems that your ticket has been escalated to our Specialized agents. We've increased the priority of the ticket to High and they'll be with you as soon as possible. 

     

    Thank you for your patience, while they investigate this and try to find the right course of action to proceed.
