I don't receive the 6 digit code to my email's inbox.

I cannot receive 6 digit code to my inbox;

  • I am sure I typed my email correctly
  • I checked my spam folder
  • I added no-reply@dropbox.com as safe contact
  • I contacted support@dropbox.com- recieved a reply: "Replies to this email are routed to an unmonitored inbox and will not be answered by our support team."
  • My spouse tried with his email and it worked
  • I want him to try with mine to ensure I'm not missing a step. 


I am desperately looking a solution to access my acount.

    Sorry to hear about this, MysterySauce

    Have you tried logging in to your Dropbox account again and re-typing your email address and password since then?

    Do you have any devices currently linked to your account? If yes, you can check the Notifications section for the one-time code.

    If there's still no code to be found after all that, I can go ahead and log a ticket for you directly (to the email address you see here).

    Let me know if that’s OK.

    Thanks Nancy for your quick response!  I have tried your first advise without success. No other device is connected, I have given backmy work laptop since I stopped the contract with the company. 

    The account I have no acccess is another email. Since I'm desperate, I'm writing from my spouse account.  [removed per Community Guidelines] is the account I'm having the issue. I would appreciate if you can open a ticket.

    Merci!

      No worries, MysterySauce! Please check your email address now and see if you’ve received my email. 

      If you have, I’d like you to reply to it and we’ll go from there.
