Hey hh08, I've responded back to your email.
Also, hi gjnnets, how are you today?
I know it might sound trivial, but are you certain you're logged into your Dropbox account, when trying to delete it? Can you also try a different browser, or an incognito tab on your current one?
Let me know of the results!

Same issue with the 500 error. I've tried on countless browsers. Very frustrated with this issue, especially since I was recently charged for a subscription due to my inability to successfully delete my own Dropbox account due to this error. I need someone to e-mail me to resolve this ASAP.

i have the same issue with no help from anyone. i will never recommend Dropbox to anyone, its just one big scamming company. I shouldn't have to pay to get LIVE customer service and not some automated chat bot. I want to permanently delete my account with dropbox so I can go somewhere else.
