I made a typo on my email, now I can't verify or change the email address

Hi
Please I need some help. When signing up for Dropbox I made a mistake on my email address - omitted a full stop. I can't verify my email and it won't let me change it under settings. Thanks

Hi @Irishsal; welcome to our Community!

This shouldn't be an issue as long as you remember your password. From your account's General tab, click on the verify email button and then choose the 'update email address' option from the prompt you get. Input your correct email address and password and you should receive an email to verify your email address to your (correct) email's inbox. 

Let me know if that doesn't work for you and we'll take it from there.

When I set up my Dropbox account, I mistyped my email address.  Dropbox can't verify me to this non-existent email.  How do I fix this?

We had created a new dropbox account named. [personal information removed as per Community Guidelines] and that domain is not the correct one, Obv. Finger error. We need it to get changed to [personal information removed as per Community Guidelines]. The tricky part is that we have already upgraded the account with the incorrect email address to 2tb storage space.  Could you guys please assist as we are not able to verify that email address.

Hi @Juan Karelse,

Just set the correct email in your settings using edit link, next to the currently set email.

Hope this helps.
