Hi all,
I did not manage to receive Reset Email from no-reply@dropbox.com. Already check the spam folder and Global whitelist no-reply@dropbox.com. After several tried to login with incorrect password, my account is blocked.
When I try to Reset my password again, @ https://www.dropbox.com/forgot?
I got this error:
Too many incorrect attempts. Please try again in a few minutes.
How long I need to wait? Any support team able to assist me?
I urgently need to access to my dropbox account
Thanks
Dear Fiona,
Case has been closed. Support team has sent me the Recovery Link from another email provider login-support@dropbox.com , instead of no-reply@dropbox.com
Thanks for your help
Sorry to hear you can't access your account @wkloke.
When you get the too many attempts error you need to wait for 24 hours to reset the password again. Our team cannot send a password reset email in the meantime.
If you are not receiving your reset password email tomorrow when you try to reset it again, then please contact our team at: https://www.dropbox.com/support
Is there a computer, that has the Dropbox desktop application installed to access your files from, for now?
I hope there is!

Dear Fiona,
Thanks for your prompt response, after 24 hours, I no longer get "Too many incorrect attempts. Please try again in a few minutes." instead, "If a Dropbox account exists for @Email , an e-mail will sent with furthers instruction."
However, I still not receive any Recovery Link after 4 hours. Already check spam/log files, whitelisted no-reply@dropbox.com
Can you send the Recovery Link direct to my Email instead of dropbox.com/forgot
Thanks
Sorry for the late response @wkloke @wkloke1,
I located the case you created with us for this account access issue, it is already in the right hands.
Please respond there for us to help you resolve this, as soon as possible.
Thank you for your patience.

I have the same problem as discribed above. My email address is [email address removed as per Community's Guidelines]. It is obviously an business email and it will highly appriciated your prompt response.
Hi @Rainer_Zufall; are you still having issues with receiving the email to reset your password?
