305 TopicsFamily plan is too expensive for what it offers
While I would like to have the ability for my wife and I to share a combined account with our own individual logins - it's not worth the extra $80/year, almost doubling the cost for only a limited increase in features. If it came with double the storage I might consider it, but even then I'm not sure I need that much more storage at the moment. Please reconsider the pricing on the family plan as I will never upgrade at anywhere near that price. It makes more sense to just have 2 Plus accounts since it comes with the extra storage. With the amount of competition out there for similar cloud storage, it's getting more difficult to justify the cost of dropbox, so I was really expecting a minimal increase in price, if any at all versus the Plus plan I am currently paying for.15KViews21likes32CommentsSomething went wrong message when trying to pay for upgrade
I have been directed to seek your help paying for an upgrade on my account. I get the same error no matter what computer, or browser (even incognito). It allows me to enter all my payment info, but the black box is spinning and the submit button is grey and there is a pop-up that says 'Something went wrong. Please refresh.' I was direct here when the support request by email only allowed for cancellations or refunds, which seemed to mystify the person advising me via chat.14KViews4likes121CommentsBeing charged twice for same account
So I have a problem I’ve been trying to figure out for hours. I’ve been going back and forth with Apple iTunes and once with dropbox. I have one account. I use the app on my phone from the Apple store and sync my photos for editing on my laptop. I’ve just now noticed I have double charges on my statements. One from Dropbox for 11.03 and a few days apart there is one from iTunes for 11.02. On both ends they see my charges for my Dropbox plus account and everything looks okay they say. Okay so why am I being charged twice? For one Dropbox plus account? I can’t figure this out and all that really adds up over the year and I’m just wishing someone can give my my money back since I’ve been paying twice. Sorry if this is confusing. Another important note is the only app I pay for in iTunes is Dropbox. So there’s nothing else it could be....Solved7.8KViews4likes27CommentsGet support for your paid Dropbox account

My Personal account was a PLUS plan paid in App Store witch was connected to my Team account. How to get things back to personal Plus again when Dropbox stopped support free teams. Who to contact, Dropbox or Apple, none of them seems to be interested in live support (no chatbot please, they're so stupid)? /PeterSolved6.7KViews3likes29CommentsI've paid for Plus but it's not on my account
I have been using the same Dropbox account for nearly a decade. I am currently being charged $9.99 per month for the Plus Plan, yet Dropbox says I have the Basic Plan and need to upgrade before being allowed to upload. My important files have not synced or been backed up in an extremely long time due to this. Any attempts at upgrading or updating billing information have been unsuccessful and due to "being on the basic plan", my only support option is a chatbot. I have been trying for three weeks to contact someone for help, but the "human plan specialists" frequently disconnect. Not having the option to speak with someone via email or phone call is beyond frustrating, especially for the $1,200 I've spent on their services. Does anyone know what I can do? Quick reference: - Actively paying for the Plus Plan - Dropbox says I have the Basic Plan - There is no option to update billing information besides contacting Support - Billing screen for upgrades always says "something went wrong. Please refresh the page or contact support". Help please!Solved6.2KViews2likes40Commentsdropbox has stolen my money

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!2.1KViews2likes4CommentsIlegal credit card usage
My conversation with Kim over someone using my credit card to start an account on Dropbox. Buyer beware. And if this conversation is deleted, I'll be posting about it on the major news services! Ticket #8516958: DB: $99.00 charge on my credit card that I didn't charge! You can add a response by replying to this email. Please be sure to reply with the same email address that you used to originally contact us. Kim, Nov 4, 9:25 PM PST: Hi Paul, Thank you for contacting Dropbox Support! My name is Kim and I'd be happy to help you with this charge! Dropbox currently only offers phone support for Business Standard, Advanced and Enterprise subscribers however, I am more than happy to assist you via email. I don't see a charge for your account at [personal information removed for security purposes] — is it possible that you have another account under a different email address? You can look up a credit card charge with our credit card self-serve lookup tool here: https://www.dropbox.com/payments/find_receipt However, if you cannot find the charge in question, or if you have additional questions to that charge, I will need all of the following information for security reasons: • Card type • First six digits of the card • Last four digits of the card • Full name on the credit card charged • Date of charge • Amount charged • Billing postal code Additionally, if you have the 12 character alphanumeric transaction ID shown on your bank account, please send that on. Alternatively, if you paid with PayPal, I will need the PayPal transaction ID. You can find this ID by logging in to your PayPal account and clicking on the transaction in your account history. Thank you in advance, looking forward to your reply! Best regards, Kim Kim, I've found out that there's a charge from last year also. At the time, I was in the middle of renovating a new home and had so many charges happening that I didn't catch the first charge from Dropbox. I've checked several email addresses that I use and none have replied with a password reset email. Card type xxxx • First six digits of the card xxxxxx • Last four digits of the card xxxx • Full name on the credit card charged Paul Day • Date of charge 9/30/17 - xxxxxxxxxxxx 10/4/18 - 141-xxxxxxxxx • Amount charged $99.00 $99.00 • Billing postal code xxxxx xxxxx Another reason I know this is not my charge is I NEVER use any auto renewal service. Thank you, Paul Day Hi Paul, Thanks for getting back to me! I was able to look up the account based on the transaction ID you kindly provided.. The email address associated with the account is [ [personal information removed for security purposes] This charge is for a Dropbox Plus subscription on an annual payment plan. Please let me know if you would like for me to go ahead and cancel the automatic renewal of this charge on your behalf. Thank you in advance, looking forward to your reply! Best regards, Kim Hi Kim, Thanks for clarifying that this is not my account and somehow someone was able to use my credit card illegally. I expect a full refund of $198.00 as this was obviously not me using your service. If I don't receive a full refund I will pursue legal action against Dropbox for not properly verifying the owner of a credit card during purchase. If it's happened once, I'm sure it's happened before to others. May I suggest that you contact local authorities to track the person who is fraudulently using your system to recover your lost funds. You have their email address and I'm sure that your system tracks their upload IP address also. Thank you, Paul Day Hi Paul, Thanks for getting back to me! I'm afraid we cannot provide a refund for this charge. However, I've just cancelled the subscription and the account will downgrade to the Basic plan at the renewal date. Feel free to contact me if you need further assistance or have other inquiries. Best regards, Kim Excuse me, YOUR NOT EVEN GOING TO GIVE A REFUND? and you know that the charge was ILLEGALLY placed. Oh, and your so unconcerned about the theft that your going to DOWNGRADE the account, not close it and attempt to go after the person who used my credit card illegally. NO, that would make too much sense. WOW, is that ever smart and how NOT to run a business. BOY, first this email chain will be sent to the credit card company so that they'll see you're at fault and then I'll get my money back. In the mean time I'll start posting about Dropbox and how they're letting stolen credit cards used on their system and then seem totally unconcerned when notified. As proof, I'll be attaching this email post to all posting. We'll let the public decide, like on the Dropbox forum first. Paul Day Now I ask you, would you expect a FULL refund if you were in my shoes? Also, Kim seems totally unconcerned that Dropbox is not properly venting CC#s when being used on their system.
