Hey ZacharyHarvey, thanks for posting on our Community!

 

Do you have access to the email address linked to your Dropbox account that you need to access? If so, can you check your spam folder, to see if the email went there?

 

Let me know how it goes.

Hi Megan

 

I do have access to the email linked to my Dropbox account, I also have checked my spam account and there is no email from Dropbox there.

    Hey PS24 & ZacharyHarvey - would it be OK if we reached out via email to have a further look internally?

     

    In the meantime, have you tried clearing your browser's cache or using another browser to request the verification email?

      Yes, please go ahead and send me an email; I'm receiving other emails from Dropbox without issue. I have tried both clearing my cache and requesting it via a different browser; no success.

        Thanks for your help resolving this issue. I've been able to verify my account!

      Hi Walter

       

      I tried accessing it in incognito mode and was able to get the verification email sent. Thanks for pointing that out.
