      <title>There should be a better warning before merging with a team account</title>
      <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Security-and-Permissions/There-should-be-a-better-warning-before-merging-with-a-team/m-p/783660#M16095</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I recently received a request from a client to merge with his team account, when what he wanted to do was send me a link to some files. It was his error. I was faced with a choice: open a new dropbox account (so I'd have two) or merge my account with his. It was early and I hadn't had enough coffee. I chose the latter and immediately received an email informing me that my Dropbox account had been cancelled, my money refunded, and all my files were no longer accessible. So, I had made an error too. His error plus my error took a day to undo, and my system is still the updating 220,000 files that had been backed up and had been instantly removed.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Such a major change (cancellation of my account) should not be allowed to occur without at least one warning – something like: "Are you sure you want to cancel your Dropbox account? All your backups will be lost. You will only be a member of the team account."&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;That would have probably avoided the stress and hassle, as at that point my spidey sense would have finally kicked in, and my Monday would have been saved.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thank you!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
