My Dropbox account won’t upgrade to Plus

My Dropbox account won’t upgrade to Plus

I updated my Dropbox to Plus, using the free 30 day option. However, it still says that my Dropbox is full. I try to install it again and it says “you’re currently subscribed to this” then I press “OK” and it says “unable to upgrade: an unknown error occurred.”
If I press Restore Purchases it says “unable to restore purchases: the operation couldn’t be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error 409.)”

Hi @brendalegria , let's see what we can find on this together!

When you visit your plan page right here, what is the subscription you see? 

Can you clarify if you're trying to purchase the Plus plan through an in-app subscription from your mobile or directly using our website

Let me know what you find

Hi! So I’ve been trying to upgrade to the 2 TB and after I purchase it, everything goes through and I get charged, few moments later it says that the upgrade failed. I go to try and purchase it again and it says I’m already subscribed to the upgraded version but it doesn’t reflect in my account.

Hi @Lily6, welcome to our Community! 

 

Is it possible that you're paying for a different Dropbox account than the one you mainly use?

 

Also, how have you been paying for your Dropbox subscription? Directly through your credit card or through iTunes/Google Play?

 

Keep me posted!

I just deleted and redownloaded all and logged into the account I want to use. I tried to purchase it again, everything went through then few moments later this pops up “upgrade failed. An unknown error occurred. Please contact Dropbox support” I do this on my mobile phone

Hi @Lily6, if you're using an iOS device, could you try these steps to restore the purchases on your account?

Hi @Lily6, I just sent you an email, in order for us to look into this. 

 

Respond back to me, and we'll take it from there.
