    Hi there DUATravel, thanks for posting!

    Can you visit your Plan page here, what plan does it show exactly there?

    If you're on a paid plan, or even a free team structure, you'll not be able to see the "delete account" option.

    Let me know what you find!

    I am unable to delete my Basic Dropbox which I don't need.

    When I try to delete it - I get an error message saying: User Name and Password do not match.

     

    Basic conflicts with my Dropbox Pro. which has a different email.
