Update billing info
Every instruction page tells me to go to my account page, click on settings, then click on billing, in order to update my credit card information. However, there is no "billing" button on my settings page. What should I do?

Go to your Plan page. What plan does it say you're on? If it says you're on the Basic plan that you're signed in to a free account that has no billing information, which means you're likely be charged for a different account. Use the credit card charge lookup tool to identify the account you're being charged for.
Thanks, Rich! That took me to the Update Billing Info page. Then, when I put in the new credit card info, I got this error message: There was an error completing payment. Please update your payment information, or change to another type of payment and try again.

Hi dreamingusername, sorry for jumping in.
Are you receiving the same error message even on another browser/incognito window?
Have you recently tried the same payment method with another service and you had no issues?
i am trying to update my visa information, but it tells me my information is incorrect. I need to do this so I dont lose all my files

Hey papamcbride, thanks for letting us know about this.
Can you tell me if you're trying to update your card details to renew your subscription, or are you trying to upgrade anew?
Feel free to try doing the same from a different browser, to see if it works?
Keep me posted!
Mr Davis here need to speak with someone regarding my dropbox acct.
The most effective way to explain my issue is to speak with someone
from your office.
Please contact me as soon as possible to advise me of my options.
Thanks

Phone support is available to Dropbox Business customers and it's handled via a callback initiated through the admin console on Business accounts. All others can find the support options available to them on the Support page. Basic (i.e. free) accounts are limited to the various self-help options such as the help center articles or the chat bot, or you can ask questions here.
Had to drop my Venmo as payment method due to Venmo screwing me out of putting money in to cover my subscription to Dropbox and freezing my account and my teens accounts. Now that I don't have that payment method, I need to add another payment method. Nothing is letting me do so. Guess I have to wait till I can talk to someone on Monday to help me do that? Because there nothing and no way anywhere that I can do that!!
- Appreciate that Mark. So I won't lose my hundreds of files that I have stored in my Dropbox?? I have over 172 gigs were of content in my Dropbox I could lose that I have no where else to put it. That's what I'm afraid of if I do what you said!
Thank you again Mark,

Hey Mrbtailor , sorry to hear about this.
If your payment are made through Google Play, like Mark mentioned, you'll indeed need to cancel that subscription first, allow the account to get downgraded and then re-upgrade with the method you prefer.
If you cannot find the Dropbox subscription in your Google Play Store subscriptions, is it possible that you originally used a different device to make the upgrade?
- Thank you Hannah. Well, I've tried that and don't see what it's trying to do. It's like it doesn't disappear. I don't know what is going on. And just to be clear, this device that I'm using right now, is the same one I use for everything!! Even my Dropbox. When I purchased my Dropbox, I spent for the upgrade as I was filling out to set my Dropbox up. So I never bought the lesser, I got the premium right out the gate
