I've paid for my account but it's not showing up
My account was charged for a new month's subscription yesterday. Then this morning, I get an email telling me that my account is full, out of space, no longer syncing. I went to my account and logged in, and it says I need to upgrade, that I'm only a Basic user! But, I am a PLUS user and have been for many years! I'm not going to pay to upgrade my account to a level I'm already at - especially when they just billed me yesterday! The payment was successfully processed, I checked. So, there is no reason for this.
NONE of this makes ANY sense to me whatsoever:
- My bank account processed the payment for my subscription successfully.
- I pay for my subscription through Google Play - which shows me as an active Plus member, with my next payment being due in April.
- The email I received was telling me to upgrade to the next level of 3 TB. But, 3 TB is NOT the next level up from Basic - 2 TB is! So, that makes it seem as if I'm already at 2 TB...?
- When I logged into my account, it said I was using a little under 6 GB, and that I was full, out of space, no longer syncing - meaning I'm in a Basic account.
Since the account is showing me as Basic, I'm unable to contact anyone in Customer Support for help - no phone, no chat, no email. Apparently, that is only for "paid" customers - WHICH I AM!!
I need help with this. I need to know if any Dropbox employees monitor these boards and might see this...???
I have MANY important documents saved in my cloud, so I need this working correctly again!
Any help would be extremely appreciated. Please.
Thank you,
Lori

Thanks, Amornrat, I just emailed you!
- Starr583 years agoExplorer | Level 3I'm having the same issue, too. It was paid through ITunes. I paid for 2TB. I really need this for work. I've tried everything I could find to fix it, but no luck yet. Please help if you can.

Sorry to see that you're having this issue, Starr58.
Have you tried restoring your purchase by following these steps?

Hello,
It seems that this error still exists.
I've also paid through ideal, but no subscription update.

Hey Maikel21, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
If I understand correctly, you've paid for your subscription, but your account still shows as Basic, is that right?
Can we send you an email, so we can investigate this further?
