Hey Sandersen, sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
Can you please send us a screenshot (omitting any personal info if possible) of the page you're landing on when you click in the email to verify your new email address?
Also, since you don't have access to the email address that's primarily associated with your Dropbox account, you might need to create a new account and copy or move any files you had stored in your (old) account to the new one.
In any case, please keep us posted!
