I can't link a 4th device to my Dropbox account, even though I pay for Plus.
Hello , after searching and searching , talking to a chat bot that gave stupid similair answers , due to lack of an ordinairy support phone number somewhere on the dropbox site to get in contact , I gonna try on this way , maybe they help me :
My subscription isn't correct!
I pay for PLUS , I got 2 TB of storage , so far so good , but when I want to connect to my 4th Laptop , It says I got a basic subscription and It can only match 3 devices. I must upgrade to PLUS! My account TAB shows also BASIC. .. . .. . .. I paid for PLUS ! And where the hack can I find my invoices ??
How come ???
Please Help , thanks Ruud [removed per Community Guidelines]

You likely have more than one account. Use the credit card charge lookup tool to identify the email address associated with the paid account, and make sure you're using that to sign in to your account.

Thanks for Reply. But I don't have a 12 digit number for the tool ! My payment shows a lot of numbers , but not the req. 12 digits. I did in the past a direct debit , and every year the bill automatically is paid.
So ???

Hi Ruud Jansen, let's jump right into this!
Have you tried to contact Dropbox Support directly for this?
You can 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.
Once you do, feel free to send me the ticket number reference, in order for me to locate it on my end.
Let me know more!

thank you Rich , but billing is not my direct problem!
I pay for PLUS but the system recognize me as BASIC.
Okay , your credit card charge lookup tool issue was clear , but I didn't pay with a credit card , it is automatically done by direct debit . So I cannot identify the email address associated with the paid account. Those 12 digit is not on the bank copy , ther are much more numbers on it..
no defense of all , but Is it that difficult to understand my issue ?
I just want to get some personal 1:1 help , to solve this , that I am a full PLUS user , or to help me , that 's all I am asking for

Hey Ruud Jansen - would it be OK if we reached out via email to have a further look internally at this point?

That's a billing issue. You're being billed for something that you're not getting. Either follow the steps I posted which will let you submit a help request, or respond to Walter so they can reach out (by opening a request in your name).

Thanks Rich! It's indeed a billing issue , only without direct support help it's impossible to solve.
Best regards
