Hey Emmie Clarke, thanks for the update.
What does the last email you received say? That you've lost access to your trial's features and then prompts you to upgrade?
If so, you don't need to worry, as your account has been downgraded and you will not be charged.
Let us know if the emails continue to come in, though.

Hi
The most recent email I had said
Your free trial of Dropbox Essentials has ended. Sadly we weren't able to charge you for your subscription, so you no longer have access to Dropbox Essentials.
You can upgrade to keep the benefits
Thanks

Hey Kevin Lato, how are you today?
Just to make sure we're aligned: are you signing into the same Dropbox account that received the email?
When you check your account's plan page, what does it report?
Let me know, and we'll take it from there!
