Can I use the 2TB Dropbox plan for 1-2 months only?

Hi,

I've searched on Help but didn't see such info so I would like to ask if I just need 2TB storage just for 1-2 months for a short project, can I subscribe to Dropbox 2TB just for 1-2 months and then cancelling it? If yes, how do I cancel it after 2 months.

As I see the forum on issues and personally afraid that there is no option to cancel it after this period and you will be continuously charged automatically and not being able to reach out for help.... ;(

    Of course. Just make sure you select the Monthly option when subscribing. When you're ready to cancel, you'll be able to do it easily from the bottom of your Plan page.

    Rich answered the question perfectly, but I just want to add in the reminder to make sure you've removed the extra files prior to downgrading.

    Meaning if you have 600GB of files, make sure you get under the free storage limit when you're done.
