TERRIBLE SUPPORT SERVICE
I am extremely angry with the unbelievably bad service from Dropbox.
The Support Team in Australia as NO WAY OF CONTACTING their own Restorations Specialists team in the US.
Having opened a ticke...
I never knew that Dropbox support would be this horrendous. Getting help from them is so difficult and there seems to be no urgency from them in resolving the issues we face. Just your typical generic email replies such as "our engineers are looking into it" and thats that. It's coming close to about 2 weeks now and issue is still not resolved.
I have been a dropbox customer for close to 10 years now and is on a dropbox business advance plan. Previously, we were on a reseller but this time, we decided to go directly with dropbox instead. Here's where my nightmare started.
I was advised to create a new account and thereafter, port over my team and files using the trusted team option and proceed to disband my current account - which i dutifully did.
Once done, none of my team were able to join in as team members and our files weren't able to be ported over.
We emailed and call support and all that we get were just generic email replies. They don't understand the urgency of the matter despite me telling them that we needed this to be resolved asap as my business is severely impacted by their delay. I offered them what can i do to help expedite this such as screen sharing, going into the issue in details etc but no response.
They lack empathy and don't seem to understand that businesses and livelihoods are at stake here.
2 weeks have almost passed but we have yet to make any progress. I truly regretted renewing my account with dropbox (I got a much better deal with Onedrive which i now regretted my decision) knowing this is the kind of support dropbox provides.
To all others out there, think again should you need to purchase or renew your account with dropbox. When all is good, dropbox is wonderful. But when you need is assistance, dropbox don't give a **bleep** about you.

Hi Ianfazer, I hope you're doing well this Monday!
I managed to locate your ticket in our system and passed your comments onto our support agents working on this.
Your words have been quite helpful, and I will do everything I can to ensure that your voice is heard. Sorry that this wasn't the experience you had in mind, and hope to change it in the future.
Also, Mark, would you like to share your ticket number with me, so I can investigate further?
Thank you both.Hi Megan,
As mentioned, I really need this issue to be resolved. It's been more than 15 days and we are still back at where we started.
Your support team hasn't been timely in providing updates and see the urgency in the matter.
I don't need your diplomatic answers that your team is looking into it. Just resolve this asap. Let me know if you need me to get on a call or something so that i can resolved this immediately.
That's all I'm asking for.
