Hi, I referred a friend and did not get any extra storage. How can I contact dropbox support. The robot chat doesn't work.

You shoudn't have received the first 500MB bonus. The referral system is for inviting other people to Dropbox; not your own accounts. You're taking advantage of the system to earn free space. If Dropbox realizes this, they can not only mark your referral as ineligible, but they can remove ALL your referral space as a result.
