Re: Free trial not working

I signed up for the 30 day free upgrade trial from Basic to Dropbox Plus but my account is still showing Basic.

    Hello, Did you upgrade your account directly from the Dropbox website or via Google Play/iTunes?

    Can you double-check your iTunes account to ensure that the subscription has been properly activated? Look for any confirmation emails or receipts that indicate the upgrade was successful.

    Yes, I received the email from Apple that the transaction had gone through, but my account on Dropbox is still showing Basic.

    Have you made sure the account on the mobile device that you paid for is using the same email as the account you have on Dropbox?

    Can you open your Dropbox app, tap on 'Account' then on the gear icon and then on 'restore purchases' to see if that helps?
    By using the "Restore Purchase" button, the Dropbox app will communicate with iTunes to verify your previous purchase and upgrade your account to Dropbox Plus if it hasn't done so automatically. If successful, your account should reflect the upgraded status.

    Well, if other people in the community couldn't help you in this issue, I suggest you to contact the Dropbox support.

    I did that, no reply!


    How, and when?

     

    Did you receive a ticket number when you contacted them? If so, reply with it here. Also, Dropbox Support does not work weekends so you'll need to wait until business hours for them to respond.
