Not receiving 6 digit verification code
I have been trying to access my dropbox account for the past month and have not received any 6 digit access code emails or any password reset emails, or for that matter any emails from Dropbox. I pay a monthly subscription fee so I don't think my account has been shut down as I have seen in other threads. I NEED these files!
Hey Jay,
I had previously added the no-reply@dropbox.com email to my contacts and that did not solve the problem. I was able to pull out my old computer, thankfully, and the code was being sent as a notification and not as an email. So I am in now but if I had not been able to resurrect my computer from the dead things would still be a problem!

Alexis G.1 Hey I hope we can figure things out.
Yes it's really annoying...and I agree with your authenticator thing. Pretty much necessary I think.

Hey Alexis G.1, thanks for reaching out and sorry to see you're having this issue.
If you haven't already, please try the following steps, to see if they help:
- Check the spam/junk folder of the email
- Add no-reply@dropbox.com to the email contacts
- Try to login from a different browser/private browsing window

1- spam folder it's empty.
2- no-reply@dropbox.com it's already in the white/allowed list.
3- I try with Edge, Chrome, Firefox, same results.
4- I try private browsing. I never received the code
The email it's OK, I send multiple emails to the same mailbox and all received without a glitch... but we don't receive the code so I cannot login to renew our Business Suscription.

No worries, Alexis, in that case, can I email you, so we can sort this out?

Hey Nancy I replied the e-mail
Could you take a look at my problem?
I need to access the account.
The ticket link you sent me wouldn't open, it just connects to dropbox support home page.
