    Dropbox backup is a separate system to Dropbox, so you can be free/basic on Dropbox but paid for backup. 

    You need to cancel it on the Backups system. Have a look at www.dropbox.com/backups

    I think that it s because now there is no dropbox backup subscription plan, you just get it with other plans. But I seem to have gotten it standalone. And i can't cancel. There only seems to be one cancellation method and it's from 'manage account

    I have the same problem as you—I can't find any way to unsubscribe. Hopefully, someone can help solve this mystery.
