    Dear Fiona,

     

    Case has been closed.  Support team has sent me the Recovery Link from another email provider login-support@dropbox.com , instead of no-reply@dropbox.com

     

    Thanks for your help

Sorry to hear you can't access your account wkloke. :slight_frown:

When you get the too many attempts error you need to wait for 24 hours to reset the password again. Our team cannot send a password reset email in the meantime. 

If you are not receiving your reset password email tomorrow when you try to reset it again, then please contact our team at: https://www.dropbox.com/support

Is there a computer, that has the Dropbox desktop application installed to access your files from, for now? 

I hope there is!

    Dear Fiona,

    Thanks for your prompt response, after 24 hours, I no longer get "Too many incorrect attempts. Please try again in a few minutes." instead, "If a Dropbox account exists for Email , an e-mail will sent with furthers instruction."

    However, I still not receive any Recovery Link after 4 hours. Already check spam/log files, whitelisted no-reply@dropbox.com

    Can you send the Recovery Link direct to my Email instead of dropbox.com/forgot

     

    Thanks
