I have 2 accounts and want to use the email linked to the one on the second

I currently have 2 Dropbox accounts, one is the freebie and the other is Dropbox Plus. I want to remove the freebie account and just have Dropbox Plus. However, I want to assign my main email address...

Hey Timbo1960, thanks for joining us on the Dropbox Community!

 

If you have no need for the free account, you can simply just delete it; that way, the email address it's using, will be freed up and you'll be able to use it on your paid account.

 

Otherwise, you can use a third, placeholder email address on the free account, to free up your main email address, and then use it on your paid account.

 

I hope this helps, but let me know if you have any other questions.
