Re: Deleting Teams

How can I delete a whole team?

How do I delete a Team? Not a team member, a team. I'm the administrator and I cannot find the way in which I can delete a Team that I once created but no longer want.

This is exactly the problem: "YOU have allowed your account to be consumed into a team account." 

I'm amazed that dropbox let me to do that by just accepting to join a team....

Its the only way to join a team, by you joining.

Its not amazingly clear to people what that means but the info is available.

 

PS; is it a biz or a adhoc team?

It's an adhoc team...

I would expect a popup of type: "Warning! By joining this team, the ownership of ALL your files of your personal PRO account will be transferred to them"

That is clear! All the rest are weird!

Because this is if fact what is happening by simply accepting to join a team.

If its an adhoc team, then they dont really own your files, its not as rigid a group as a biz team.

true... that's the only thing keeping me calm until the support will take care and revert the situation.

A simple "un-join team" or "leave team" would do the trick

For safety sakes I would suggest you unlink a device that contains all your files, such as your pc. In that way even if they screw it up your files are safe.

Not possible. I have 1TB on dropbox and I synchronise only a part of them. That was the reason of going PRO. 😞 Even if I will re-link it will take ages to synchronise...

Ignoring all the above.

 

I think your risking alot storing anything you want to keep in the cloud without a physical backup.

Need more support?
