They're already linked. Not sure how that helps though since they are separate. Is there not a way for you guys to do it on your end? Also, would I get a refund for the remaining portion of my plan since it doesn't expire until Feb of 2025?

    We wouldn't be able to assist with migrating files, since that isn't a feature provided by Dropbox. Since both accounts are linked, and if both accounts are signed in on the desktop app, you can move files from the personal Dropbox folder to the Business Dropbox folder.

     

    Regarding any refunds, you can contact the support team to see if this is possible.
