Cant't upgrade to DB+, system says that the account is managed from outside. Payment information in account settings is not available.

I keep getting a "Your plan and billing information are managed externally." message and I cannot upgrade to plus.
I had a plus account, then was added to a family account by mistake. I messaged one of the dropbox chat yesterday and it said I should leave the family, downgrade to basic, then I can upgrade back to plus. I did as instructed, and I kept getting that message. We even asked the person who added us to the family and we are removed on their end.
I messaged the dropbox again yesterday who said try incognito and it gave the same error message. Then directed me to IT, so I wrote a message abut I haven't heard back.
This is day 3 issue now with "Your plan and billing information are managed externally." and I cannot use my dropbox.

Having the same problem. I wanted to downgrade from Professional to Plus and was told I had to cancel my Professional subscription and THEN to Plus. I cancelled Professional but now it won't let me upgrade at all. I use DropBox at work and it is super important that I'm able to sync files with my coworkers. Need this resolved ASAP!

This is getting to be a huge problem for my business. My drop box is not syncing and I cannot resolve it. When will drop box have a solution. I am happy to pay for the upgrade/renewal but it will not let me and there does not seem to be a work around. I never got any messages that this was happening, no notice that I was running out of storage or I had to renew. Nothing.
