But when going to "groups and members" in my account, I can see the team, but there is no option to leave it.
Those are the steps for leaving a free team. If you're part of a Business team then your team admin needs to do it for you. It's very important that if you want to retain you account, the team admin needs to convert it back to a personal account. If they just remove you from the team, your account will be deleted and the admin only has seven days to restore the account.

I was recently asked to join clients dropbox. Dropbox gave me two options (to combine accounts or keep separate), and honestly, I was not clear on what they were stating. I ended up combining the account, thinking I just got to see files in my account. Turns out my account and my client's account got melded together. It created my own folder within my client's account. How can I separate my account again?
