After they install and sign into the Dropbox application on a unique computer, they also need to verify their email address.

Hey, Rich. Thank you for your quick response!
Actually it was that. I didn't realise it had to be the desktop version, plus it hadn't been installed from the link sent via email
Thank you so much, it helps to get a bit of extra space for new documents 😉
Cheers!

Hello Hannah, I believe this is the post that Stephen used to get his referral issue sorted.
I was the one who referred to him, and we have been going back and forth because you cant sort it out for me as I did not contact you directly.
I have just sent you an email and also writing this message, I hope you can contact me directly about this issue.
Many thanks.
