41 TopicsHaving trouble cancelling a Plus trial from Google Play
Hi, I had to re-install Dropbox on a mobile as it wasn't synch'ing properly and as part of the process the Dropbox app forced me to take the 2TB subscription as a trial (i could not just reload), i choose the annual payment option and the payment method is Google Play Store. I dont need 2TB of space so i am trying to cancel the trial which ends 9th July. However when i try to do this in the mobile app i click on 'your plan' (which states i have Dropbox plus) then click on how to cancel option, then click 'leave plus' it goes to a page that says 'manage subscription' but says we couldnt find your subscription. I then click the only option which is 'see current subscriptions' and it only shows the google one subscription i have, not the dropbox subscription. I am at a loss how to cancel the dropbox annual subscription option via google play store - please help?44Views0likes1CommentHow can I subscribe to an annual Dropbox plan on iOS?
Hi, I am having trouble finding a way to subscribe to the annual plan for a Plus subscription in the Dropbox iOS app. I don't want to pay through the website but the monthly plan is too expensive. Does anyone know how to subscribe to the annual Plus subscription within the iPhone app? Thanks!Solved99Views0likes7CommentsI want to switch my billing from Apple to Dropbox, but I am unable to.
I'd like to switch my billing over directly to Dropbox instead of through my Apple account on my Iphone. I've spoken to their tech support and they don't have any solutions. I'd like to take advantage of a benefit I have through Adobe, but because it's connected to billing in Apple, it doesn't allow me to get the deal. It says my billing is managed externally. I let my Dropbox plan expire, as advised by Dropbox customer service, but it's been two days since it expired, and with it being my work, I'm concerned about losing my files if I don't get this fixed sooner than later. Does anyone know the steps on how to remove the "inactive" Dropbox subscription from my Apple account? Or on the Dropbox side, how to switch my billing over to Dropbox instead of externally?35Views0likes2CommentsI've been charged for Plus on iOS and Professional on the Dropbox site
I found out today that I have been paying via apple billing for a Plus ($11.99/month) and dropbox directly for my Professional ($19.99/month) amount for almost two years. The charges are for the same account (I only have one.) My account shows as a Pro account but my apple bill apple continues to come up as a Plus fee monthly. While I pay a direct fee to Spotify for the "pro" upgrade, somehow I'm still paying the for pro features? Cancelled the subscription via apple today and thinking about cancelling my dropbox if this is not resolved. chat was extremely unhelpful on both platforms, both pointing fingers at the other. There is a glitch somewhere in the communications. If you upgrade your account of either platform, the other should be notified and adjust or remove billing accordingly. This looks and feels like consumer fraud.41Views0likes6CommentsI subscribed using the wrong email address on Google Play

When trying to attach a Dropbox file using the Outlook mobile app, a screen says "No files found." I used to be able to create an email and then attach the Dropbox file using the Outlook app, but now this is not working. It's possible from the Dropbox app side, but not from Outlook. Any idea why this is happening? I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling Dropbox and removing/adding my Dropbox profile for Outlook, but this persists.54Views0likes2CommentsHow can I upgrade from Plus to Professional when I upgraded via the Android app?
Is there any way to upgrade my plan from Plus to Professional? I subscribed via Google Play and i'm unable to upgrade my plan to Professional, i don't have any possibilities in the app for that as it always takes me to Google Play where i can only decide that i'd like to continue that very subscribtion or not. If i go to dropbox.com then it writes that "Your plan and billing information are managed externally." and i can't even start a free trial and it also takes me to Play Store.. What can i do with that? I honestly think that it's quite ridicolous that upgrading an account is that difficult...Solved209Views0likes2CommentsI can't upgrade via the Google Play store.
I just wasted 45 mins online with an agent. Tried to upgrade my account. After all that you can't upgrade your account via DROPBOX sales agent because I signed up via via Google play store. So went to google play store and I can't upgrade my account via playstore! Gone back and forth and back and forth with the agent to get nowhere. Asked if I could call someone for direction, have to go via email! Was told I need to upgrade to a business plan to make a call. Can't upgrade to a business plan for direct support because I pay for DROPBOX via playstore. Surely a big tech company can do better and make upgrading which is essentially volunteering to pay MORE for your service easier! ... No way to upgrade my service without spending more time on a service call and wasting more time. Very very irritating. Maybe you want to fix that!6.5KViews3likes29CommentsNew payment after changing Apple ID country is not recognized, so my account is downgraded to Basic
Hello all, I have a problem with my Dropbox Plus subscription purchased via Apple App store. I'm originally from Russia, my Dropbox Plus subscription was purchased using my Russian Apple ID. However I'm no longer live in Russia for 10 years, but I was still using my Russian Apple ID with my Russian bank card. Due to recent restrictions applied by VISA and Mastercard my Russian bank card as current payment method for Dropbox Plus subscription in Apple App store was denied/no longer valid. It was not possible for me to update my payment method and add any other country's bank card (bank country and Apple ID country should match) . So I decided to change my Apple ID country to my current residence country which is Spain. I successfully changed it and after that I paid 1 year subscription for Dropbox Plus in Apple App store using my Spanish bank card. The payment was done successfully, I have an email from Apple App store regarding that and I can see my Dropbox Plus valid yearly subscription in iTunes app. However today my Dropbox account became limited to Basic due to "ended subscription". Apple ID email and Dropbox account email are the same. Could you please help me? how can I resolve this issue? Many thanksSolved2.3KViews0likes11CommentsMy mobile subscription has expired, but Dropbox still won't let me re-subscribe via the website
Hello. I am trying to switch my subscription from Apple mobile payment to the Dropbox website. I have already followed the instructions provided by Dropbox and cancelled my subscription with Apple. According to Apple, my mobile subscription expired on August 7th (10 days ago). However, when I go to manage my subscription on Dropbox.com, I am told I have to manage my subscription through Apple and not given the option to subscribe via web. To make matters more frustrating, when I try to contact support by email through Dropbox's website, I'm given the same set of instructions I already followed and not allowed to submit a support request. I haven't attempted to use the live chat because it's not available on weekends, and if I'm going to have to wait until Monday to receive support anyway, I'd rather be able to submit a support request now while I'm thinking about it and handle it asynchronously than have to remember to do it on Monday. It's incredibly frustrating, and from looking at the forums, it seems like this is a problem multiple people have had that has required email support from Dropbox to resolve. I would primarily like help resolving this issue so I can subscribe to Dropbox via the website. However, I would also like Dropbox to consider updating the "Submit a Help Request" form to allow people having this issue to, ya know, use it. The fact that multiple people have posted on this forum about this exact same issue shows that the instructions provided are insufficient, and genuinely the most aggravating part of this entire thing has been being stonewalled by Dropbox's support request UI. Please either update the instructions with troubleshooting steps when your subscription has expired on mobile but you're still unable to change your subscription plan on the website, or, if this always requires Dropbox support to resolve, provide a way for people in this situation to indicate as such in the "Submit a Help Request" form that will allow them to, ya know, submit a help request.427Views0likes5Comments
