Hey there Noah Spurrier, thanks for posting your question here!
Generally, you won't lose your referrals if you upgrade or downgrade your subscription.
They'll be worth 500 MB if you are on a Basic account, in relation to the 1 GB space they are worth if you are on a paid subscription.
Once you downgrade, could you go to your Plan tab and see what it reports?
Give me a shout with any updates or any other questions, cheers!

Hello, I have a basic account free with 10 GB (as I had sponsored a lot of people when launching dropbox at the start).
I was wondering if by switching to the paid account and if I have then to cancel, will I find a basic account at 10 GB or the basic account at 2 GB?
Thank you for your help!

I have a few terabytes of Extra Space storage I received early on granted by a Dropbox employee. I use less than 1 TB, so I'm not upgrading to get more storage. Rather, I am considering upgrading to Business Advanced plan ($20/month) for advanced features like the "Single sign-on", "Viewer History", "Audit logs with file event tracking", "Admin Console", and the 180 day Rewind and file recovery. My concern is that if I buy a year of the Advanced plan features and then after a year I decide I don't really use the features then can I downgradeback to the Basic plan (free) without losing the Extra space Granted by Dropboxer. I don't want to comit to a year and then find that I can't go back to my free plan.
