Re: Paid for upgrade through iOS app and got nothing

Paid for upgrade through iOS app and got nothing

Vanessa S.4

Last Wednesday:

 

1. In iOS app, selected Upgrade Account and selected “$9.99 a month.”

 

2. App charged me $99.99.

 

3. Dropbox account stayed at Basic.

 

Since Friday, been trying to find out what I can do to get my account set to Plus. But Dropbox claims it’s Apple’s issue and Apple’s troubleshooting says that I have to contact Dropbox. I have tickets open with both Apple and Dropbox, but neither have been answered.

 

In the meantime, I have run out of space for a client project.

 

Any tips for how I can get the upgrade I paid for?

Hi Vanessa,

Can you try something for me? Go to the Dropbox iOS app, open the account tab (right most tab), and scroll down to Restore Purchases. Try tapping that (make sure you're still signed into the same Dropbox account you want to upgrade, and the same iTunes account you made the purchase on).

Thank you, Maple. I actually have tried that several times over the past week and I always get the iOS message "Purchases Restored," but my account continues to show "Dropbox Basic" with 2.2 GB of memory.

 

Just to confirm too, I have logged on to my Dropbox account through a web browser on my Windows laptop and it still shows I have a Basic Account too. I only have one account.

 

Just to be sure, I also just logged out of the Dropbox iOS app, logged back in, and clicked "Restore Purchases" again. Same result. I also tried to "Upgrade" account and again received the pop-up message that I am already subscribed to the upgrade.

Go into Settings within the Dropbox app on your Apple device and Restore Purchases.
