I do use Paypal, drawn on my bank account. But it specifically says if one uses paypal, they have contact support.
Visit the Support page while you're NOT signed in to a Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll see options for sign in and billing issues. It's best to use an Incognito or Private browsing session to make sure you're not signed in.

If Dropbox is saying you're on the Basic plan but you're already paying for a subscription, then you're paying for a different account than the one you're signed in to. Use the credit card charge lookup tool to identify the account that you're paying for, then sign in to that account.
