Death and gaining access
Hi there,
My husband recently died. I need to gain access to his account. I remember his password but for the 2 step validation I need to access his email which has now been shut down. Any suggestions on how I can contact dropbox so that I can send the letter and the death certificate?
Thanks team!

Thanks a million!

The only problem is... that page takes me to the support page where there is no option to open a ticket. I feel like I'm in a Catch-22. My friend died and his mother is legally blind, and there's no way to get access to his files or cancel his account. Help!
Thanks 🙂

Would it be okay for me to reach out to your Community linked email?
I'd be happy to look deeper into this for you.
Let me know.
