Hello there, sandybarnes1970, let's jump right into this!

 

Have you tried to contact Dropbox Support directly for this?

 

You can visit the Support page while you're not signed in to a Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll see an option for Billing issues. It's best to use an Incognito or Private browsing session to make sure you're not signed in.

 

Once you do, feel free to send me the ticket number reference, in order for me to locate it on my end.

 

Let me know more!

Hi Megan,

Thank you so much for your reply.

I tried to contact support, but it keeps making me choose a menu item.  I just wanted to deal with a human.  I will do what you suggest here and see how I go.  Thank you

    Hi Megan,

     

    I have sent message explaining my problem.  I have not been able to access my account since my employer deleted my email account.  So cannot get code to verify account - if only the verification code went to my mobile number instead of the email address I cannot access!!  Therefore, my account under this user name: removed has been unuseable.  I would rather set up a new account with an email that is under my control that I will never lose access to.  Hope to hear from someone in the next day or so.  Many thanks Sandy

      Hey sandybarnes1970, thanks for that! 

       

      I just checked, and it seems that your email was automatically caught by our spam filter. No worries though.

       

      I just created a ticket on my end for you, and we'll take it from there. 

       

      Thank you!

        Brilliant!  Thank you.

         

        Luckily I control both my hotmail and gmail private email accounts.

         

        Thank you 🙂
