Hey MA54 - sorry to jump in here, but have you tried the steps Rich provided earlier to reach out to our support team for further assistance?
If so, you can share your ticket's ID with us here, so that we can look it up in our system too, if needed.

Hello,
I downgraded my plan from Premium to Basic in March of 2022. According to my Dropbox account, the last charge to my bank account occurred on 2/20/2022. This charge appears on my bank statement, but I have been billed $12.74 on the 28th of each month since then even though my account should now be free.
My Dropbox account is recognized as Basic (free) within the Manage Account tab in my Dropbox profile.
The chatbot has not been very helpful, so I would really like to get in touch with someone to solve this issue and hopefully request a refund.

Hey nicrob16, let's jump right into this!
Can you please clarify if you've tried our self served look up tool to identify the email address that's associated with this charge?
Let me know what you find and we'll take it from there.

Hi Megan,
Thank you for helping me out! I do not have a 12-digit code. I only have access to the code on my bank statement. When I select the link to "billing help request", it just takes me back to the page with Dropbox Support options so I haven't been able to figure out how to actually submit the billing help request.
It isn't impossible that I had another email address associated with Dropbox at some point, but I have only been charged for one Premium account per month even when I actually had the Premium account and I definitely have not created another Premium account through a different email address since I started receiving unauthorized charges.

Hey nicrob16!
I can definitely help you out with this. If you don't mind, I can open a ticket on my end for you in order for us to have a closer look.
Are you okay with this?

Hey Laureenn, thanks for posting here today!
Would you mind checking if the ticket number you've provided is correct and that it has all the numbers correct?
I'm asking because I just checked on our system, and couldn't locate the ticket number, or any other linked to your Dropbox-Community linked email address.
Let me know more and we'll take it from there!

I am billed monthly however I can confirm the only account I am aware of is a free basic account. The second account in the household was canceled yet the monthly charge still comes around and I have NO idea if a second forgotten account exists. How do I stop the charge for a subscription we do not use?

Hey lmich12, thanks for reaching out about this.
If these payments are made through a credit card, you should be able to use our payment lookup tool, to find out the email associated with the paid account.
Let me know if you have any trouble finding that!

Sadly, I have a billing error, which I also can't address as Dropbox has made it impossible for account users to contact them. So basically, they can receive money without any consequences. I can't believe this service is not monitored or audited by governing bodies.
