There was an error completing payment
Have tried to upgrade from the free version to Dropbox plus and keep getting the error message above. Have tried four devices, three browsers and two credi cards - same message.
Anyone have any id...

Thanks for the swift response and glad I could hear this helped clear things up for you hoppybushrat!
I haven't heard back from Nate yet - I guess they might have tried another credit card for the purchase after all.
Sorry to repeat myself here, yet, have you contacted your payment vendor to make sure you have enough funds for the purchase of your Dropbox subscription and that your payments are authorized for international payments?

Sorry to hear that hoppybushrat - have you tried multiple browsers and still get this error message? If so, can you confirm that you're inputting all of your billing information correctly?
Moreover, have you contacted your payment vendor to make sure you have enough funds for the purchase of your Dropbox subscription and that your payments are authorized for international payments?

Yes I have used Google Chrome and Internet Exporer. I have entered my details correctly and have before and since been using my credit card for overseas purchases.
Please note it looks like an issue with your website. Look at the link:
https://www.dropbox.com/buy/plus?oqa=qlp&trigger=top
Note that on the left of the screen it refers to $99/year but you are require to agree on the right of the screen referring to $113.85! That makes me suspicious about it being at your end.

The sum is for the subscription's price+ tax hoppybushrat since we collect and remit tax on transactions when required to do so. Taxability and tax rate are generally determined by the location of the buyer and seller, and various state and local tax laws.
Having said that and based on the link you provided, I don't see any issues. Could you let me know if there's anything I can help with from my end?

That was obvious now you explain it but it wasn't obvious before that!
I have now tried on another computer and another 2 browsers with the same result. How did you resolve the problem for Dave that posted about this previously?
Will that solution apply to me perhaps?
