I switched to an annual Plus plan, but I'm still back on Basic. How is this possible?
Recently switched to Plus Annual, but something messed up, and now I am back on Basic, but with Annual fee gone. I was on Plus, paying monthly. Switched to Annual, but now get the Unable to upgrade message. I never logged into the Dropbox with another account. Paid via apple store. Billing Management page is empty now. I have Order ID, Receipt and screenshots from apple device, ready to share privately. Would like to keep the Plus subscription. Please assist.
Why did I receive an email that my files will be deleted?
Dropbox Advanced Plan (Unlimited) Question or Issue Hello Dropbox Community and Support Team, I am writing this post out of genuine concern and urgency, hoping someone from Dropbox can provide clarity, accountability, and a viable resolution. I was a long-time user of the Dropbox Advanced plan, back when it offered unlimited storage. At the very beginning of my Dropbox journey, I asked Dropbox Support one very specific and critical question: If I use Dropbox for years and end up storing a large amount of data (for example, 50TB), and later decide to stop my paid plan, what happens to my data? Will it be deleted, or will it remain safe on my account? I was clearly told by Dropbox Support that: All the data I had already uploaded would remain permanently on my account My data would not be deleted as long as my account remained active The only limitation would be that I would not be able to upload any new data This was a fair and reasonable policy, and it was a major factor in my long-term trust in Dropbox. Discontinuation of Unlimited Plan & Reconfirmation from Support When Dropbox discontinued the unlimited storage plan and moved to per-terabyte pricing, the cost became completely impractical for a personal user with ~50TB of data. Before making any decision, I again reached out to Dropbox Support to reconfirm what would happen if I chose not to continue with an active paid plan. Once again, I was explicitly told: My existing data would remain safe My data would not be deleted As long as my account stayed active, Dropbox would retain my files This was escalated and reconfirmed by higher-level support in March 2024. Sudden and Alarming Deletion Notice Now, completely out of the blue, I received a notification stating that: My data will be deleted by January 30, 2026 I am required to reduce my account usage to under 2GB This is extremely alarming and directly contradicts multiple written assurances I received from Dropbox Support over the years. My Concerns How is this allowed? This is the exact scenario I proactively asked about—multiple times—and was clearly assured would neverhappen. How am I supposed to download 50TB of data? Even with fast internet, downloading this volume of data within a limited time window is unrealistic, costly, and technically challenging. Why is Dropbox not standing by its own commitments? Trust was built on explicit support assurances. Changing this retrospectively puts long-term users at severe risk. What I Am Asking For A formal clarification from Dropbox on why previous commitments are no longer being honored An exception, grandfathering, or alternative solution for legacy unlimited-plan users like myself At the very least, a realistic and humane transition path that does not put decades of work and data at risk This situation is extremely stressful and disappointing for someone who trusted Dropbox for years as a long-term data archival solution. I sincerely hope someone from Dropbox can step in, review my case, and provide a fair resolution. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I look forward to a response. — A long-time Dropbox user and supporter
What is the link for the Dropbox Extra plan?
I'm currently using Dropbox Extra Plan and my partner really interested to have one. Is it possible upon request? By the way we are from Malaysia and I did received this offer. The plus plan is just too much (2TB) more than the capacity of the hard drive but having free version + referral program is kinda limited (30GB++)
