Can't access my old email, need to cancel subscription
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 have forgotten the password to the account and can't reset it because I don't have access to the email. 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? I have an invoice from dropbox showing the Premium monthly charge as proof that it is my account.

Thanks, Walter, I just entered it but I wasn't clear on what to do after I submitted it.

Hey CarolLight13, sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
May I ask if you've tried our look up tool to identify the email address that's associated with the charge in question?

I had two email accounts, one I can log into but appears to have nothing in it and I don't believe I'm being billed for it, and another under another email address that I cannot access as when I try I get a message that there is no account for that email address. However, I have been billed $19.99 monthly for the last several years for absolutely nothing. I have tried to reach a live person to address this and this doesn't appear to be possible. I hope you can help close the account. Thank you.

Hi Hannah,
I'm having the exact same issue. I've got an account linked to a long-defunct email from a company account that no longer exists, which I'd really like to get access to and manage. Can I get the code it keeps asking for sent to my personal email?

You can use the credit card charge lookup tool to identify the account you're being charged for.
