      <description>&lt;P&gt;Dropbox won't ever issue you with the backup code again, so if you cant log in using your normal username, password and code, you won't ever be able to regain access to the account.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;As per the article Robert linked to:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;If you're not receiving text messages, you've lost your phone, or your mobile authenticator app isn't working, you should disable or reset two-step verification on the &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/account#security" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;Security&lt;/A&gt; tab of your Dropbox account settings.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;and&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Recover your account with your emergency backup code&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;OL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/login" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;Sign in&lt;/A&gt; at &lt;A href="http://www.dropbox.com" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;www.dropbox.com&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;When prompted to enter your security code, click I lost my phone.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Enter your emergency backup code and press Disable two-step verification.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/OL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you have lost your emergency backup code, and you are not receiving any two-step verification text messages, and the steps in that help article are not helping, then there is little you can do to recover the account.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Once you enable two-step verification, Dropbox will not grant you access to that account without the emergency backup code. &amp;nbsp;If you lose that code, the account is also lost.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I don't for one minute think that the Dropbox text messaging system is saying&lt;EM&gt; "lets not send this specific message to Abdullaziz, that should be funny!"&lt;/EM&gt;. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Which means it is being sent.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Text messages are unreliable - which is why you are given an &lt;EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;emergency backup code&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;. So you don't lose the account if the&amp;nbsp;text message isn't received.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The moment you turn on two-step authentication, it&amp;nbsp;is your responsibility to ensure that the &lt;EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;emergency backup code&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt; is kept in a safe, secure place. &amp;nbsp;It is the &lt;EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;only thing&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt; that overrides two-step authentication.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you have lost your &lt;EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;emergency backup code&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;, then I'm afraid there is nothing Dropbox can do.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;If you open a support ticket at &lt;A href="http://www.dropbox.com/support" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;www.dropbox.com/support&lt;/A&gt; they might be able to send out the SMS via a different method, which might resolve your issue, but if it does not, then Dropbox will not recover the account for you.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Tickets take on average 3 business days, and you can check on them at &lt;A href="http://dropbox.zendesk.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;http://dropbox.zendesk.com/&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
