Make sure they've installed the Dropbox desktop application on a unique computer. Mobile devices do not count for referrals.

You can check if your friends have used your referral link, by clicking "Settings", which can be found on your profile logo on your top right hand corner. Then click "Refer a friend". There is a list called "From referrals" you can see if your referral has been activated. 

 

I think that one of the reason that you did not get extra storage, but your friend did is that he/ she has activated the referral from another friend rather than you.

 

Hope that it may help.

To get your bonus space, I believe they must not only accept your invite, but install DropBox to one of their computers.
