Hi Burdzy, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Are you certain that you're logging into the same account on your phone as you are on your computer?
When you access this page, do you see what plan you're on? How many devices are currently linked to your account?
This will help me to assist further!

Hi Jay,
Here are answers to your questions:
Are you certain that you're logging into the same account on your phone as you are on your computer? Yes. It uses the same email and password.
When you access this page, do you see what plan you're on? How many devices are currently linked to your account?

3 devices connectedI do have Plus. Here is a recent email from Dropbox:
"Hey Krzysztof,
We hope you've enjoyed being a Dropbox Plus user! Your subscription will renew automatically on October 5, 2024. Keep doing more with Dropbox Plus:
- Plenty of space for all your stuff
- Control over who sees shared files and links
- Peace of mind when devices go missing
Your subscription will renew on October 5, 2024, and again each year, until you cancel. If you’d like to cancel your subscription, access your account settings. You may also contact support at any time."
Thanks, Chris

Thanks for the info. Are you able to contact the support team directly on this page?
- Burdzy3 months agoExplorer | Level 3
No, I can't.
The page says
"Your support options
Your Basic plan includes access to our Help Center, Community and Chatbot."Help Center are just articles.
Chatbot is not a real person.
I will believe in AI when it can resolve an issue just like mine.
At this point, I am totally cut off from meaningful Dropbox help,
except for you, Jay. Thanks for listening to me. Chris
