Is there a cheaper plan than the Plus plan, that offers more space?
my question is:
Is there any plan that is even cheaper than the normal basic plan of 2000 tb? It happens that I want to have more storage space, but the cheapest plan is still quite expensive. ...

Hi wdshieh, if your account is eligible, you could upgrade to the Dropbox Basic Extra plan, which offers all the existing features on Basic, but with 50 GB of quota.

Hi!
I think your pricing policy is not right. 1TB for $99 is too much space for too much money.
With Google I can have 100 Gb for $1.99 per month, which is more than enough for me.
After being a premium user for more than 3 years, I am switching to Google Drive.

First time here, but I have been using DB for about 3 years now. I have my phones/tablet set to auto upload (Drop-Sync Pro) my images etc. off each device at night time. I have really loved DB. BUT .... Apparently, TWO YEARS ago (like I can remember that), I got 48GB of space because I purchased a Samsung Phone. I just got an email didn't I? Telling me that I am about to lose that space unless if pay AUD $139/year for DB Pro!! I am utterly disappointed in this as I have got my mum and friends on the DB cause I love it. Now I am 22.7 GB's over what will be my new limit. I am sorry but as a Single working mum, that premium is far too high for this service. So, I feel I will have no choice but to leave DB and find a suitable alternative. $99US is not too bad but with the Australian Dollar and all, it is too prohibitive for me. In fact .... I have a Microsoft Office 365 Account which I pay a yearly subscription for and that is HEAPS cheaper than a yearly subscription for DBPro!!!
Edited to add: I have just done some online searching for alternatives to DB and am looking at iDrive Personal Pro. $60/year (1TB) to do everything that DB does and more, to me, is a more affordable option. Unless DB want to remain competitive and offer the same deal for the same price? Balls in your court DB. I would prefer to stay with you but not for $139/Year.
2nd Edit: (sorry). Too many reviews are scathing of iDrive, but to my utter delight I have just realised that I purchase an Office 365 Subscription each year for me and my school aged children. We get the MS Pro suite of products for 5 persons per year PLUS because I have a 365 Subscription I also get 1TB storage automatically!! Yeah baby! That costs me AUD $119/year. More bang for my buck!
