652 TopicsI can't deactivate my Dropbox free trial because of an error
Dropbox Plan (Advanced Free Trial) Payment Method None How did you upgrade? (Via the Dropbox website) Question or Issue Whenever I try to add new teams or try to deactivate my Dropbox free trial, I only got "Something went wrong on our end. Close and try again.". Before this occurred, I started a 10 TB free trial, only to get 200 GB. I've then tried to deactivate it, and it succeeded, but it said I'm still in a free trial, even though I'm not, therefore I can't delete my account. Is there anyway I could get my account deleted, or at least fix the problem deactivating my subscription?43Views0likes7CommentsI can't see a full refund as mentioned on my existing Support ticket. Why?
Ticket #25863456 I found out that Dropbox had been taking money from my account using expired card details, without my consent or permission, or having provided them any new, valid payment details. I raised this issue, and on Dec 31, 2025, Louis said he took some steps to resolve this, including: "Issued a full refund of £79.96, which should appear in your account within 3–5 business days depending on your bank" It has now been more than 3-5 business days and I have not received the full refund as promised. I tried to reply via the customer portal but it said I no longer had access to it. I tried to reply via email, as they said I could, e.g. "If there’s anything else I can help with, just reply to this email and I’ll be happy to assist." So I did, and got this email back: "Hi, Thanks for reaching out to Dropbox support. Replies to this email are routed to an unmonitored inbox and will not be answered by our support team." This is absurd. Thanks.39Views0likes9CommentsI got charged even after cancelling my free trial.
I was charged after I signed up to a free trial, which I cancelled within the trial period. It infuriates me, as on top of that, the cancellation was complex to do and at various points it seemed that I had cancelled only to find out at the bottom of the page that I needed to go through another 5 clicks to actually be able to cancel. I have found the experience very user-unfriendly - the real aim was not to offer me a trial to find out whether this option suited me, but to catch me out so that I - unwittingly - stayed a subscriber - and even after making sure I followed the procedure, my money was taken. I want to know if anyone has experienced the same thing and how to proceed to get my money back!102Views0likes4CommentsCan’t delete my team’s account and get back to my Plus plan with 2TB storage
Dropbox Plan: originally Plus, accidentally signed up for Teams (want to cancel Teams) Payment Method Card How did you upgrade? Dropbox website Question or Issue I accidently signed up for the Teams free trial when I was trying to add a password to a folder on my personal Plus account. The trial has expired and my account is now locked. Every time I try to cancel/delete my team is tells me there is an error and to try again. I tried to go into the admin console and convert my account back to a personal/Plus account with no success — whenever I try to go to Settings on the Member section it tells me I don’t have permission. I am unable to use my account I’ve had for 6+ years. Please help! My support Ticket is #25869484. Please help! I can't afford to lose 6 years worth of work!!21Views0likes1CommentI have a free Basic plan but I got charged

Hi all, I work for an organisation and our bank card is being charged for a dropbox account. None of our current staff pay for an account. We think it might be an ex staff member who paid for the account and didn't cancel their subscription before leaving. How do we find out how to access the account that we are paying for. It would be good to get some money back, or at least cancel it so that we aren't charged again. Thank you.Solved21KViews1like120CommentsI am being charged for a Dropbox account that I do not have. Can I dispute the charges?
Is there anyway to get in touch with an actual human at Dropbox? I am being charged monthly for Dropbox account that I do not have, and I cannot for the life of me get an actual person to help with this on the Dropbox side. Is the only option to go to my bank and dispute the charges? Thanks! Bethany4KViews1like20CommentsUnauthorized payment to Dropbox via PayPal
Hey there, I have a problem with an unauthorized payment to dropbox via PayPal. PayPal wants to send 119,88€ to Dropbox unlimited company. I didnˋt change my Dropbox status, still have the basis version. So I really donˋt have a clue where this payment should come from. I already tried to contact Dropbox, but with the basis version I canˋt get any attention or help. Itˋs the same with PayPal. I opened a case there, but PayPal said that the payment is fine. I am worried that I get hacked or something. Already changed my password.... I really donˋt want to send this amount of money to Dropbox. But I feel really helpless what to do now. Can someone help me? Maybe an idea to contact dropbox in another way so that I can cancel the payment. I am grateful for any help! Thanks a lot. Cheerio Julez4.1KViews0likes4Comments
