Not receiving the email verification email

Not receiving the email verification email

I just started a dropbox account and cannot receive the Email verification email. I have tried opening in another browser, double checking that my email was entered correctly, added the no reply dropbox email to my address book.....no luck with any of these.

Hey @samtheman326, sorry to hear about this.

 

Just to confirm, did you also check your spam folder?

 

If it's not there either, I would suggest going to this page from a private browsing/incognito window and submitting a help request to our support team, so they can assist you further.

 

Once you have your ticket number, please send it here as well.

 

Thanks!

The verification emails are not going to my spam folder.

 

I went to the link you provided through an incognito tab but once again I was asked to verify my email which I can not due because I am not receiving those emails, however I am receiving email notifications for this chat.

If GMail . . .
There is a setting for Advanced Protection on Chrome that is made for blocking phishing - it is also blocking email verification. Try turning that off to receive that email then back on. 

The problem with this setting is that it doesn't tell us nor the sending company that it isn't getting to us. 

Need more support?
