    I think it would be good if the referral reward for free users will become 1GB instead of 500MB.

      It would be as good as what I have seen on pCloud but it is still depends on Dropbox's decision.

      Agreed! Users would get more out of DropBox altogether if the reward was higher and encourage them to upload more

      The referral system is your best bet. I made a comment about this to customer support a few months back. Some of us use dropbox casually and don't have the cash to shell out to pay monthly or yearly, specially students... 

      Unfortunately, there is no other choice but to pay the time limited fees. I suggested if they could add a once a month or once every few months purchase option of x amount of space for a small fee that you can add up over the years.

       

      Sadly, your best bet is either doing the referrals (A. You need alot of friends who already do not have dropbox installed or B. Make a bunch of fake email accounts and go uninstalling and reinstalling dropbox on a computer with each account to add space). 

      Your choice. You can also be of help on these forums and hope someone gives you a kudos.  There's also the basic account setup and things you can do, but it does not add that much more space.

       

      Hope this helped!

        Please do not do B - Dropbox have, and do, on a regular basis remove space acquired like that. They also do not just remove the space acquired via the fraud but all of your acquired space.
