If you have found my ticket in youtr system you may have also taken notice that I first reported this several months back. I have sent back repeated reminders to ask what is going in and all Im told is that the matter has been escalated to your engineers but several weeks still pass and NOTHING!!!

Im sorry to say but I was a strong advocate for Dropbox leading up to this issue arising. My respect to Dropbox as an organisation is practically erased! For the readers benefit, Im not on a free dropbox account, Im a paying subscriber. I just cannot fathom how a business like Dropbox can expect to stay in business when it treats customers like this.

So, yeah, whilst Dropbox drags their feet in solving my matter Im doing what they clearly are not... trying to solve it!
