Sorry to hear that you're having this issue, Investor221.
Do you have any devices still linked to those accounts?
If so, you take a look at them, as the security code should be sent to those as a notification.
Let me know if that helps.

Hi Investor221, on that form, there is an option to fill in an email address, are you not seeing that option when using an incognito window, like below?

You need to enter an email address that you have access to, so you can receive a response. Use the Details section to list the email address of the Dropbox account that you're unable to access.
