How to avoid being billed

I signed in for a free trial of D Professional, and registred with a credit card. When I enter my account to cansel the free trial,  the Db account on my pc, says that Basic is the current subscription.

Therefore I am unable to cancel a subscription that was not activated.

So what am I to believe - cince Db welkoced me to a subscription that was not activated? Since I can not cacelle it, will I still be billed?

  • I finally found the solution!

    I signed in to Dropbox via my mobile/hotmail-account, and managed to cancel the trial there.

    What confused me was that I applied for the testperiod through my pc/gmail-account - and all later comunication was through that adress. Sorry to have bothered you!

    Hi guri2, thanks for messaging the Community.

     

    Are you see any payments or trials on this page?

     

    As the plan page is showing Basic, then it means you're not on a trial at this time. 

     

    Keep me updated with any details or screenshots.

      No, there were not any billing or trial! This is how it looks - and that confused me, since I did recieve an e-mail that wellcomed me to Professional. I do not want to get a bill for something I did not receive! I suppose I just have to cross fingers and hope then...? Guri2

        It does seem like you're on a Basic plan for this account.

         

        Just to be certain, do you have any other email addresses that you use which could have a Dropbox account associated with it?
