Cancel subscription for account I can't access
Hi there,
I have 2 dropbox accounts, currently signed into one of them. I am unable to sign into my other dropbox account as the email address is from a workplace I am no longer at, I no longer have access to it. I remember the password, but when i try to send in, it is sending a verification email to my old work email address. I need to cancel the premium Dropbox subscription on the account and delete the account. How can I do this without having access to the email address?

- Rgdamian2 years agoExplorer | Level 3I’ve sent a request via the support page and there was no ticket number I received. It stated that I would get a response in a few days, but where is that response being sent to? The email I do not have access to anymore (and the one the support form wanted me to type in)? I added my personal email in the notes, but I’m not certain I will get a response at my personal email address.

Hey Rgdamian! Can you please double check your personal email address again, along with its spam folder, and let me know if you still can’t see a ticket number?
- Rgdamian2 years agoExplorer | Level 3I checked my personal email and there’s no message or ticket number from Dropbox. I do not have access to the old work email- which is the email address they wanted on the form to look into the account. I included my personal email in the notes section of the request

Hey Rgdamian, just wanted to clarify something; when filling out the form, in the "I want to look up information related to:" section, make sure to choose "other" and then add an email address you can actually access.
Let me know how that goes and if you get the ticket number this time.
- Rgdamian2 years agoExplorer | Level 3Thank you! I have the ticket number. Anything you can do to help and resolve this quickly is appreciated.

I am hugely frustrated at the lack of support from Dropbox who are happily taking money from me from an account I have not had access to for 2+ years. There is no one to call or e mail and all other community and support centers do not offer the help. I do not have access to the e mail. I do not know the password. I am discussing with my bank tomorrow to follow up with these fraudulent withdrawals
Someone from Dropbox please contact me

You need to contact Dropbox Support directly. Visit the Support page while you're NOT signed in to a Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll see an option for Billing issues. It's best to use an Incognito or Private browsing session to make sure you're not signed in.
- RC502 years agoExplorer | Level 3Hi
Thanks for your help but nothing on that page is helpful. The first thing it asks me to do is sign in which I can’t as I don’t know the password. The second thing is a credit card checking tool which doesn’t work as my bank reference is only 10 digits so back to square one
