I have an unauthorized charge from Dropbox. What can I do?
Dropbox has taken money from my credit card account without authorisation, how do I get it back?

You'll 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.
Dropbox cannot charge you if they don't have your billing information. If you've been charged and didn't give them your billing information, then someone else has and you should be contacting your bank.

7 years agoSorry to hear that savan33, may I reach out to the email address associated with your Community's profile here so we can have a further look into this with all of my tools available?
In the meantime, have you been able to identify the email addresses that are associated with those charges by using our self served look-up tool?

Thanks for your response. Yes you can reach me out to my email address. I just used your self served look-up tool and found the two charges are from two different accounts which I never knew. Please send message to my email address, I'll give you the information I found.
Thank you!

I'm sorry to hear about the situation @Magnolia!
As we'd need to discuss some billing specific info with you, please submit a ticket with our Support team by filling in the relevant details under the "Submit a help request" here.
You can let me know the ticket number that you receive (eg. #1234567) so that I can pass along your comments from here too.
