Re: I've been banned from sharing links. What can I do?

I've been banned from sharing links. What can I do?

So, I have been banned from sharing links from Dropbox for years, I never did get any understanding of why, I never got an email about it and just dug back through to see if I had gotten anything, but no such luck. It gives a message on the site that I did something against the ToS but I have absolutely no idea how or when. This has been years and I never share links enough for it to have mattered until recently now that I'm doing tabletop gaming. Is there anything at all I can do to get this ban removed at all, I don't even know when this started or why.

Sorry to see you're experiencing this issue, @anonymous.

 

How long has it been since you were not able to share files/links?

 

If this is your first ban, keep in mind that it will last 24 hours; after that your sharing ability should resume.

Hey @anonymous, 


As a paid customer, you absolutely have access to email support. 
The response you're receiving saying that the mailbox is unmonitored seems to be a bug - sorry for that!


Let us have a look and we'll get back to you as soon as possible over email.

Hey @jzurim - sorry to jump in here, but I can see that Hannah reached out to you via email to investigate further.

 

Are you not able to find her email in your email's inbox or junk/spam folder?
