Hello, I'm experiencing difficulty in deleting my Dropbox account. I have followed all the necessary steps, but when I try to proceed, I encounter a '500 error' page. This happened several times (in different days)
Can you please assist me with this issue?

Thank you

    Hi there OATTohatsu - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.

     

    Could you please clear your browser's cache or try another browser and let us know if this persists?

     

    Thanks!

        Hey OATTohatsu, sorry for jumping in. 

         

        Did you also clear your browser’s cache, like Walter suggested? 

         

        What if you try an incognito window instead?
