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.

Hey rperry337!

 

If you downgrade your account, you won't lose the extra space you've acquired through referrals, but your current space per referral is 1G, whereas with Dropbox Basic you get 500MB per referral.

 

See more info about this here.

 

I hope this helps.

Just to clarify that a bit for you, rperry337, when you upgrade to a paid account your referral bonus doubles from 500MB each to 1GB each. If you later downgrade back to the Basic plan, your referrals will again be halved back to 500MB each.
