How can I switch from a team account to an individual plan?
Is it just me, or are there so many barriers to moving from a 3-user account to a 1-user account that I just end up paying 3x more than what I should be paying becuase it is so impossible to understa...
OK, this has been a really weird journey, but ultimately, it seems like I will be getting a pro-rated refund for the previous plan, and I am now on the Essentials plan. So I guess, case closed!
I only need one user. I don't need to change anything else. The process is bizarre. I have to cancel my plan, then have the account frozen, than choose a new plan...this is 2024, not 1997, who can't I just click a box for one user and 5TB and be done with it? I ended up paying 3x more $ than necessary in June because it's impossible to understand and I didn't want to lose access.

Dropbox StaffHi KeenanWellar, currently, there isn't an option for an individual plan with 5 TB of quota. Dropbox Professional has 3 TB of quota, but with an optional add on, you can increase it by 1 TB.
Are you looking to use a Dropbox team plan, but with only the price of one license instead of the minimum of 3 licenses?
- Like I said, this is incredibly hard and confusing. I would like 5TB for one user. I have wasted probably $1000 over the past three years on 3 users and 15TB because it's so impossible to figure this out and the scary messages of what will happen with a "downgrade" is so dissuasive that your customers become paralyzed.

We appreciate the feedback on this matter. Currently, there isn't a personal plan for a single user with 5 TB of quota.
If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.
