Multi free Basic accounts

Can I have two free basic accounts one with MyName@Gmail and another with MyName@Hotmail and open them both on the same android device to have 4 gigabytes instead of 2 gigabytes.

Is that against Dropbox rules or its allowed.

Thanks.

    FadiElGendi no you cannot. 

     

    You cannot even link multiple paid accounts if one of them is not a Business one.

    Hi FadiElGendi 

     

    You can have multiple accounts, yes, however, you cannot use them both on the same app unless one of them is a paid for account (at Business level) - basically to stop exactly what you are trying to achieve.
