Dropbox India - Renewal Failed
Hello from India!
Does anyone have a solution on how to renew Dropbox in India. As per the new RBI rule, any subscription based plan over Rs. 5000, needs to be registered with the bank first. I don't see Dropbox on any banks platform of approved providers and therefore unable to renew my company's account.
I've tried with multiple cards and received this error message:
Payment Failed!
For Dropbox
On Bank Credit Card.
Reason: Non-compliant Recurring or Standing Instruction registered with Merchant. Use alternate source to pay the bill.
For details, contact your merchant.
Please help!
Thanks.

Because of RBI Guidelines Dropbox and other International payments are not processed. Is there a work around?

- Dezvolta5 years agoNew member | Level 2I raised a ticket and they extended my plan for 1 more month till the issue is sorted.
- Muthuindia5 years agoNew member | Level 2Hi, I am facing the same issue but my renewal is already past due. I am informed by my bankers that due to recently introduced Central Bank regulations, banks in India can process auto-debits only if the merchant is register with RBI (the central bank) for auto-debits. I am informed that Dropbox is not registered and hence when I try to make payments, the bank is unable to process it.
I am also informed that single payments are allowed to unregistered merchants. But Dropbox has no facility to accept one-time payments. I am stuck between a rock and a hard place. - alberttjohn85 years agoExplorer | Level 3
I am facing the same issue. I chatted with your support and they mentioned it is some engineering issue (which I doubt). Please guide. My monthly renewal has already failed.
