I referred my son to Dropbox and he's happily using it, but I have not received the 500MB bonus. How long does it take to receive it?
Also, I understand there's a bonus for downloading and installing Passwords. Is there a special link for this? I just installed Passwords but did not see anywhere to request a bonus.
Thanks,
Geoff

For the referral what does www.dropbox.com/referral_status show?

It says he did not yet install Dropbox, but this is my son's account and he uses my computer, so there will not be a separate install. I have taught him how to log in and out of his Dropbox so we don't get our accounts confused.

For a referral to be eligible, Dropbox must be installed on a unique computer (one that hasn't had Dropbox installed previously, and mobile devices do not count). Having him sign in on your computer would cause the referral to be ineligible.
