I paid for a subscription, but my Dropbox account hasn't been upgraded

Hi, I paid for a subscription, but my Dropbox account hasn't been upgraded. 

I upgraded in my dropbox account so there is no other mail. Also when I did pay, I saw a error massage on the screen. 

I really need to send files today, so please help me. Because I payed 119,88 euro for nothing

    Hi @Jill Wolff, I’m sorry to hear this happened. Let's have a look together.

     

    From your post, I understand you upgraded directly via the Dropbox website. It wasn’t through iTunes or Google Play, right? 

     

    Can you also clarify the error message you received?

     

    If you check your bank statement, is there a 12-digit transaction ID that you can see next to your Dropbox charges? If yes, I’d like you to use it on this page and let me know if the email address you see is the same as this one (just to rule any other possibilities out).

     

    Keep me posted for any updates.

      Hi Nancy, 

      From your post, I understand you upgraded directly via the Dropbox website.  <- YES 

      Can you also clarify the error message you received? <- I did not take a screenshot.. 

      If you check your bank statement, is there a 12-digit transaction ID that you can see next to your Dropbox charges? <- I don't see any 12-digits. only more... 

       

      Hope you can help.

        Hey @Jill Wolff, is it alright if I open a ticket for you, in this case?

         

        I’d like to take a closer look into your Dropbox account, and see what may be happening.

         

        Let me know!

      Have you tried to restore upgrades on the App Store?

       

      Your best, and quickest way for help is via the App Store support centre itself here.
