I have an unauthorized charge from Dropbox. What can I do?
Dropbox has taken money from my credit card account without authorisation, how do I get it back?

You'll need to contact Dropbox Support directly. Visit the Support page while you're NOT signed in to a Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll see an option for Billing issues. It's best to use an Incognito or Private browsing session to make sure you're not signed in.
Dropbox cannot charge you if they don't have your billing information. If you've been charged and didn't give them your billing information, then someone else has and you should be contacting your bank.

Hey there Badgerman - sorry to hear that.
Can you please provide some additional information about what happened? Is it possible that your credit card was somehow compromised? Have you contacted your bank about this?
If you'd like to see the email of the account that the charge relates to, you can use our self-serve lookup tool: https://www.dropbox.com/payments/find_receipt
Should you need further assistance though, do let me know and I'll reach out to the email address you use for your forum's profile so we can have a further look into this with all of my tools available.
In any case, please keep me posted!

Hey there James, sorry to hear about this.
I see that you're in direct communication with a colleague of mine so I'd suggest that you referred to your existing ticket as this is the best way to handle account specific inquiries like this one. I passed your comments there too so we can have all the relevant information under one place.
If there's anything else I can assist with from my end, please let me know here and I'll be happy to follow up.
