Deleting licenses
Is way to difficult and convoluted and took much more time than it should have. This is the worst experience I've had with Dropbox. You normally make things easy. This was a pain in the ass, and for no good reason. I have deleted members months ago, didn't re-assign their licenses and was continuing to get charged. So I wanted to reduce the licenses. It was damn hard to find the way to do this. You should present the links in the same place as the delete team members location......very annoying25KViews21likes28Comments
Dropbox Unlinked My Accounts Suddenly
Hi there! I've have a free dropbox personal account for 15 years, and at some point added a free Teams account. Several years ago I upgraded the Teams account to a Professional account. ----- Today I got this message, and all my Professional files were taken off my machines (they're still on dropbox of course) Business Dropbox Removed: Your business Dropbox account was removed from this computer because your accounts were unlinked. Your files have not been deleted. ------ I would love to be able to link my two accounts, and continue having two separate dropbox home folders on my machine. Basically, I am leaving the country tomorrow morning and will have extremely limited internet access. I just need it to work how it used to, but I accept that I may need an alternate setup based on whatever Dropbox has changed. When I am signed into my Personal (free) account, it says I have 3TB of space, and the same for the Professional account. Within the settings menu the Pro account is called Personal Account, but when I check the billing plan for the Pro account, it calls it Dropbox Professional. Any solutions? Many Thanks! (too bad this is my only option for customer support 🙂Solved11KViews5likes27Comments
How to go from Dropbox Plus Account to Having Family Account
I currently have my own Plus account and realize my wife can't access the images I have there as her account doesn't have enough space. Looks like having a Family account is a good solution so how best to migrate there? Also, I purchased the Plus account through my iOS app, so does that make the whole conversion process different? Thanks!2.1KViews2likes4Comments
Communications look like Spam
Hi. What's going on with your e-mailers or whoever there is spamming my mail every week. Headers: "Alert alert", "Open ASAP", "Review ASAP", "Attention!", "This is urgent". Please stop. You sound like some clickbait tabloid magazine trash. I don't mind if my dropbox is full, it's okay, and I will not upgrade my account. Get some journal and public relations education for your workers.Solved9.9KViews2likes13CommentsMessage from Dropbox about completing date of birth by 1st September or lose Family Plan Access
I received the same email & have the same issue. I can't find where to update the DOB from! This truly frustrating for how much we pay for this service. Not to mention that we store important personal and business data on it. DropBox team, please sort this out!Solved7.6KViews2likes57CommentsChange Billing Country
I receive an error saying "This billing country change isn't supported" when I try to change my credit card for billing as my old one expired. My old card was an Australian card and the new one is a US one. When I choose United States from the dropdown list I receive that error message.Solved16KViews1like27Comments
There's no option to cancel my Essentials trial from the account settings.
I received a reminder to cancel a free trial of Essentials- But no such trial appears on my Subscriptions Page- just a Basic subscription, and so no Cancel button (as the help page says there should be). These support pages are riddled with loops- which is infuriating for the user. Grrrrr.47Views1like1CommentContact support
I have an idea that's very important. When a new Dropbox member creates their account and needs to speak to a live agent. Make sure when they click on contact support, that it actually works and they can actually connect with a live person. And update your FAQ. Because some of the info included is not true and it does not work! Thank you524Views1like1Comment
