Question or Issue
As previously explained, I refer DropBox to my students. Because of the awkwardness of obtaining the earned space, I use the Refer a Friend option on the website while the student is being taught here, so I can see and guide what they do. To get round the 'same network' issue, because I have two networks here - a main network and a repeater network, in order to avoid disqualification I ensure that we are logged into different networks. I watched them click on the referral link, download and install the app, but their status is still shown as 'Waiting for Install'. If Dropbox really wants to encourage referrals, please could the process for release of earned be made more straight-forward and simple?

Are they installing on a desktop computer? Mobile devices such as iPads and mobile phones do not count towards the referral scheme.
