Create or delete account
94 TopicsI deleted an old Dropbox account but I'm still getting emails about it
Device Surface Laptop Operating System/Browser (if using the web) Windows 11 Syncing Status "Up to date" Question or Issue I had two dropbox accounts, one for regular use which is used multiple times daily, one as a kind of addition for a special project. The latter was under a different email address on the Gmail platform. The latter became unnecessary and I deleted it, through Dropbox.com: following the instructions. It seemed to be successful. However it suddenly resurrected itself and started to send me messages that the account was nearly full. I deleted it again. Now after about 4 months and a new laptop it is back again, saying it is nearly full and that I should upgrade! How can I get rid of it forever please.79Views0likes2CommentsInactive account for many years. Is it deleted?
Hello, i have an old account and I think my last activity on that account was 2019. I can no longer sign in because I forgot my password, also there is no way for me to reset my password since the email address that was connected to my old dropbox was already deleted on google. I just want a clear answer, since i was inactive on my old dropbox account for almost 2 years, did you manage to delete my account and all my files? Please i need answers. Thank you so muchSolved13KViews1like6CommentsI accidentally deleted my Dropbox account - can I recover it?
Hello, this is urgent. I accidentally deleted my Dropbox Basic account linked to this email address. After that, I mistakenly created a new account with the same email. I need to recover my original account and files if it is still within the 30-day recovery period. Please prioritize this request and let me know what steps I need to take with the new account I created. Thank you for your urgent assistance.198Views0likes3CommentsHaving trouble cancelling my trial and deleting my account
Help ! I have a problem to delete my account, when I try to delete it's show only 2 buttons which is "keep my account" and "Manage subscriptions" So, when I click on "Manage subscriptions" button, It'll redirect me to the Subscriptions Page and there's no Cancel trial button were found. Try to get back to delete my account again in the first again, It's loops ! and so much trouble to do that !Solved2KViews0likes36CommentsI wanted to cancel my Business trial and ended up deleting my Dropbox account instead.
No clue what happened, so going to lay everything out here. Have a personal professional DB account, and upgraded to business as a trial, a business with 1 user. This creates two folders, your old personal file and the team folder. I didn't like how personal files are so close to business, i basically have my entire life in DB so wanted more separation and would recreate a business team account with my work email. Go into the business trial and cancel the trial. Which prompts you what would you like to do with the team files. There were no team files, I just created the account 5 min ago. There was only my personal files in a separate folder. So i hit delete permanently. My entire account is gone. It appears it permanently deleted everything and my account now says suspended if I try and login with my original email. I have a support ticket in, but currently freaking out as my entire life is in that Dropbox. I'm very tech savy and felt like that entire process was a disaster. If i have a personal account, and create a team, common sense would be the business and personal are separate files and not together. So once you close the team, you just go back to your personal account. Especially since my personal account was being upsold as "Give this a trial for 30 days"495Views0likes13CommentsI had linked my Apple ID to a now deleted Dropbox account and I can't use it to create a new one.
Dear Dropbox Support Team, I previously used Dropbox and had linked my account to my Apple ID. However, I deleted that account years ago. Since then, I’ve been unable to create a new account on iOS using “Sign in with Apple” or link my Apple ID to an account with the same email address. Every attempt results in an error message with ERROR 500, even when I try different email addresses or use Apple’s “Hide My Email” feature. It seems my Apple ID is now completely unable to use Dropbox, which is causing significant disruptions to my workflow. I would appreciate any guidance on resolving this issue. Thank you for your support! Best regards, HuaDeity656Views0likes11Comments
