Being billed for Plus but it says Basic.
Hi, I am currently being billed for Plus and have done so for years but now Dropbox says I am on the Basic plan which doesn't make any sense. It might be because a few months ago someone from another company shared a folder with me but somehow I got added to their company Dropbox. They recently rectified that and removed me from their company Dropbox. Please can someone urgently prioritise fixing this as I need to use my Dropbox and it says it is full. I have logged a query on with your support. Thanks Megan
Hi MeganLittle, how are you today?
Is it possible that you upgraded a different account than the one you're looking at?
Have you tried using our self-serve look-up tool, in order to locate the Dropbox account linked to the charge, and identify if it's a different one?
Feel free to also let me know your ticket number, in order for me to locate in on our system.
Keep me posted!

Hey me-123, thanks for reaching out to our Community.
From what you described in your post, it would appear that you've most likely signed into a different or new Dropbox account, instead of your paid account.
Can you check the email address of your paid account and compare it to the one you used to sign in now, to see if they're different?
Thank you for your reply. However, but I've already checked the other account (which I don't use) - it's Basic, no charges associated with it. Also it doesn't explain that the one I'm using shows I have 2TBs of storage and I used to be able to sync unlimited devices. But now it says it's Basic, but still have the 2TB (associated with Pro), but no details of my billing (even though I'm still paying monthly). So, it cannot be a case - I don't think - that the membership is simply associated with another account (as I'm not sure how I would still have 2TBs of storage, not why it would change when it used to be all working fine).

Hey AEF, I can see that you're in direct communication with the team through your open ticket so I'd suggest getting back to them there so that they can assist further at this point.
My colleague handling your case should be getting back to you soon, but please let us know if you have anything else to add in the meantime.
Thank you, yes I have replied to her email - so I am hoping we can get it sorted. Thanks very much for your help.
I paid for Dropbox via the Google Play. I paid for the annual Plus plan for $119.99, which was deducted from my account in July, yet my account does not show I am Plus. It continues to show I am basic. I can provide the Google Play order number, etc. I need help. This experience is upsetting because Dropbox has chats for sales but not issues.
I went through a sequence of steps to resolve with Google—uninstalling and reinstalling Dropbox; uninstalling Google Play Store updates, and clearing cache. Nothing worked. This is three months money was taken from my account for a service I do NOT have.

Could you have more than one Dropbox account? That's often the case when someone upgrades, and they've found that they've upgraded the wrong account, or created a new account instead of upgrading the existing one. Does your Dropbox account use the same email address as your Google Play account?
Thank you for your response.
I only have one dropbox account. The same account applies to my google account.
