Dropbox StaffHey StaciS, sorry to hear about this.
Can you please clarify if you're currently stuck in locked state or if the account has actually been deleted?
Were you a team admin on the Dropbox team or team member?
And is the account in question the one you're contacting us from or does this concern a different account?
Let me know and we'll go from there.
Hi Hannah,
So every time I try to login in the message "your account is locked, contact your site admin", the issue is it is my personal account. I would assume that I am the site admin. I can not even login in or purchase anything to try and contact someone for help.
This is not the account I am trying to unlock. The account I am trying to unlock will not even let me try to purchase because of the "site admin". This issue is I am the site admin because it is my personal. When I use the app it just says an error occurred.
Would you like the email associated with the account?
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Thanks for the clarification, Staci.
If you're able to sign in to that account, can you do so (no need to access your files, just sign in) and create a Community profile and reply to this thread from that account, please?
A screenshot of what you see upon signing in, would also be really helpful, if you can send us one.
Now it is saying my account is deleted. Please re-register with a new account or wait 5 days to re-register with your current email
