The same thing just happened to me, I was researching dropbox for my company and somehow charged to my personal paypal $750.00. We will likely move forward with dropbox but at my company's expense, not mine. How did this happen?

When a trial hits the end of its trial time, it converts over to a paid team account, as noted during the sign up process. When the trial for the Business account was set up, you entered the Paypal info, as we can only use whatever billing system that you provide when the trial is created (We can't, for example, assume that your personal account is the same payment system, so we have to ask on each account created)
I see that the refund has been issued already, so you should have everything back in place shortly, and apologies for the surprise.- Cottam00899 years agoHelpful | Level 5

- petra239 years agoHelpful | Level 7I just learned this happened to me, too. I was charged $750 for a business account with 5 licenses. I never wanted any of this. Perhaps I clicked the wrong thing, but I can't imagine how? I intended to upgrade to a simple individual account with an extra 2GB of space for $12.50. They are refusing to refund me.
