I was only using it on windows and my phone. On windows, I can see the files, but they are not downloaded, because windows was cleanly installed. It shows me that they are offline and are up on the cloud, but as there is no account, I can't open, copy, or download them. And on the iPhone, I was instantly disconnected.
Please keep in mind that any other platform has a 30-day cancelation mind change. What if I would be hacked? You can't just delete all my stuff for a simple mistake like that. I never searched to delete my account or terminate it. I can show the history.
It makes me sick to think that I just wanted to switch to another plan and pay the platform to use it, and instead, I lost my years of work for nothing! It's a big shame, Dropbox.

Just explain to me how it's humanly possible to delete someone's account and files because he pressed cancel plan? How is that possible to sound normal to anyone from Dropbox management?
