The only time referral space is removed from an account is when it has been determined that a referral had been earned through illegitimate means. When that happens, all referral space is usually removed.
The only way to know the actual cause is to contact Support.

Hello, Two friends that I referred have installed dropbox and started using it. But it still says " Waiting for Install" in Space earned. How do I get credit for the referral? Thank you!

Have they installed it on a computer? Mobile devices (phones/tablets, etc.) do not count.
If they did install it on a Windows computer, make sure they download and install the full Dropbox client and not the app that's found in the Microsoft Store. That app is a mobile client and will not qualify for the referral.
