Referral credit change

Referral credit change

Hi,

 

I had just referred two people and the space awarded changed. 

 

Initially I recd 1gb for the first successful referral. However, after the second referral, I recd 500mb and the first one also changed to 500mb. 

 

On the referral page in my account initially it said 

Get up to 32 GB for referrals

Earn 1GB for every friend who installs the Dropbox desktop app—and your friend will get 500 MB too. They can sign up for any plan and you get your bonus space the minute they download the app.

 

Now that has been changed to 

 

Get up to 16 GB for referrals

Earn 500 MB for every friend who installs the Dropbox desktop app—and your friend will get 500 MB too. They can sign up for any plan and you get your bonus space the minute they download the app.

 

Who do I contact

It has always been 500MB per referral, including the first one, for both you and your friend. Each referral changes to 1GB if you upgrade to a paid plan, and then it changes back to 500MB each if you ever downgrade back to a free account.

 

The limit is 32 referrals valued at 500MB each for a total of 16GB of bonus space for free accounts, or 1GB each for a total of 32GB for a paid account.
