40 TopicsWarning! - Dropbox Plus “Free Trial”
I was nearing my Dropbox storage limit. I had an increased storage size in my basic account due to many referrals to friends and companies I worked for over many years and taking tutorials in the past. I was offered a “free trial” to Dropbox Plus, with seemingly no option to refuse it. I used the (what I thought of as temporary) time and extra capacity, to do housekeeping in my account and move off a lot of photographs to other storage. With a few days of the so-called trial left to run, I looked for ways to cancel it and return to my former plan. I discovered to my horror that if you do not take up the paid upgrade (at 120 a year), Dropbox does NOT restore your former Dropbox storage limit but drops you to its current basic plan of 2 GB. So, having removed several hundred photos and videos, I now find myself around double the limit with no means of restoring functionality to Dropbox other than by removing more than half the remaining files, negating any purpose in having an account at all. Dropbox was the first and simplest cloud storage/sync solution. It has always worked flawlessly for me. That’s why I have recommended to employers, work colleagues, friend and families for decades. However, this action, a “free” offer, which cannot actually be refused, along with a penalty for not completing an expensive upgrade, that you are not warned of in advance - will drive me away and encourage my contacts to also. It is blatant misrepresentation at best, potential fraud in reality. Be VERY careful to check your storage capacity and current use! Do NOT proceed with the “free” upgrade unless you are prepared to pay. You cannot go back!2.1KViews0likes2CommentsHow can I make sure my Dropbox files don't take up space from my devices?
My god... is it just SO difficult to contact Dropbox by email? How the hell do I contact them by a simple email? I don't use Facebook, Twitter or anything like that. I want to pay them money... but if they don't want it I shall use a company who makes it wasy to contact them. The Internet seems to have become impossible to use since I started using it 28-years ago.Solved2KViews0likes40CommentsQuestions about to start Advanced plan

Hi.... Is there any movement with regards to the ability to increase the Family Plan Storage Space.

Good morning, We work in the office with Dropbox with 2 different accounts. The Dropbox is full and was upgraded by my supervisor through her account. However, I am still getting the message that Dropbox is full. How can I fix that? Hope you can help, thanks!

I signed up for the Business Trial account that is supposed to provide 9Tbs of space. I downloaded and installed the Desktop app and attempted to back up some folders containing photos from my 4Tb drive. However, I would get "not enough space" errors. Dropbox email support said I only had the free 2Gb account, and when I sent the email verification for the trial account, they ignored me and just closed the ticket. Both use the SAME email address and when I log in online, it says I have the Business Trial account. I then contacted Dropbox chat support, but they said that Dropbox creates copies of my files locallybefore they can be copied to the cloud and that's why I get out of space errors. This doesn't make sense, as that would mean my drive would need to be less than 50% full before I could upload my stuff.1.5KViews0likes10Comments
