Dropbox India - Renewal Failed
Hello from India!
Does anyone have a solution on how to renew Dropbox in India. As per the new RBI rule, any subscription based plan over Rs. 5000, needs to be registered with the bank first. I don't see Dropbox on any banks platform of approved providers and therefore unable to renew my company's account.
I've tried with multiple cards and received this error message:
Payment Failed!
For Dropbox
On Bank Credit Card.
Reason: Non-compliant Recurring or Standing Instruction registered with Merchant. Use alternate source to pay the bill.
For details, contact your merchant.
Please help!
Thanks.

Like *everyone else* in India I'm facing the same problem. I've tried all my cards and none of them have worked. My renewal date has passed so I'm a little anxious about my data. I'd like to have a way to pay and get on with life. Thanks.

Dear All.
I am sure a lot of people facing this issue for payment to Dropbox after RBIs new guidelines, for recurring payment merchants need to be registered. As Dropbox is not featured in that list, and also there is no option on Dropbox payment palteform where se can pay directly monthly / annually, stuck with no renewal.
Can someone or Dropbox accounting team listen and help......
Please help!!!
Thanks.- MeganDropbox StaffHey all, I hope you're doing well!
If you're still facing this, would it be okay if I send you an email, so we can have a closer look together?
Let me know!- srijanshuklaNew member | Level 2
@Lori, sure you can drop me an email.
As I mentioned I'm just being cautious, my billing date is 4 months away. I hope Dropbox is handling this proactively with respect to the new RBI norms, so that renewal transactions don't fail for Indian customers.
