Lost email of a paid account and I need to cancel the subscription

I need to talk to someone in Dropbox.

I have an account with a plan that I pay, but I cannot access it because the email does not exist anymore. I have already tried to contact the ESP and they say that it has been excluded years ago when I went out of the organization - it was my university email.
I also have another account without a plan using my personal email.
 
Dropbox still charges me the plan regarding my lost university email and I NEED to solve this problem, but it is IMPOSSIBLE to talk to anyone in Dropbox using muy non-paid account. And all solutions I found needed to login in my lost account.
I need to cancel the plan, and/or transfer the plan to my other account, and/or recover my access without accessing my lost email. 
 
It is urgent and I need support - I pay for it in my account linked to my lost email.

    You'll need to contact Dropbox Support directly. Visit the Support page while you're NOT signed in to a Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll see an option for Billing issues. It's best to use an Incognito or Private browsing session to make sure you're not signed in.

      I have tried it. Without success. I need to talk to someone in Dropbox, once my plan allows it and my case is a completely rare situation.

        Hey VCB1 - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.

         

        May we reach out via email to the email address that's linked to your Community profile, in order to investigate further?

    Hey VCB1, I checked and it seems that both of these tickets were automatically spammed by our system. 

     

    However, there's a different ticket that you've managed to open in Portuguese. I've informed and shared info on the email itself, and an agent will be with you shortly.

      I am still waiting for a contact or a solution. My creditcard has already charged me, and I need to solve this ASAP. You should consider this urgent.
