Trying to upgrade to Plus, but app claims I already have it
I'm currently on Dropbox Starter, which gives me 100GB, and want to upgrade to Plus for the 2TB. However, when I try to upgrade my plan, I am told that I am already on Plus - even though the app clearly shows I only have 100GB (which I have almost filled up).
It then shows my only upgrade option being Professional, which is significantly more expensive than Plus and includes features I don't need.

Hi MS89, thanks for posting here!
As this is related to sensitive billing info, I’d recommend getting in contact with our support team directly to look into this matter in more detail.
You can do this by opening an incognito/private browsing window, while not signed into any account, and accessing this link.

Hi Megan,
Thanks so much for your response! I followed your advice and submitted a support request, and another Dropbox staff member already helped to fix the problem before I could come back here to let you know the number.
Just in case anyone else comes here with this problem: it turns out that the Dropbox plan I was on had been discontinued, which is why I couldn't upgrade on my own. The problem was fixed by temporarily downgrading me to Basic, which let me upgrade to Plus. Everything was super quick and I didn't lose any files or money (I was refunded the starter fee I had paid for this month).
Thanks to the Dropbox team for the quick, effective service!
Cheers,
MS89
