You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
I verified my email but it doesn't register as verified
I'm trying to share a folder through a link. It wants me to verify my email address. I've verified my email by clicking the link it sends me about 10 times now, but it still doesn't register as verified, even under my account settings. I'm unable to chat with support because I don't have access to it.
Dropbox keeps spamming me about my storage space running out
Dropbox keeps sending me emails and notifications about my storage space reaching its capacity, as if I've got 100 megabytes of it left or something. It says that if I won't buy another plan then I'm risking losing my files, and a dozen of variations of the same message. I've been using Dropbox since 2010 and I've got a basic free plan of 2 gigs, but I've increased my storage space by inviting friends and doing "challenges", so now I have around 16 gigs of space and 13.5 of them are used. That is not "critically low on space" by any means, but I keep receiving so many spam notifications that it's starting to look threatening. Either Dropbox has a bug in calculation how much space I have occupied by comparing it to the basic plan instead of actual space, or it's doing it on purpose to force me to pay. Also I cannot contact live support since I have a free plan. I'm thankful to Dropbox for the service it provides but I'm pretty sure this is not how a service should treat its long-term customers. If this is a bug then I sincerely hope that it will be fixed as soon as possible.
Please email receipts for monthly subscriptions
Dropbox needs to start emailing monthly subscribers our receipts each month. Instead of making us retrieve them from inside Dropbox. I’m sure many of us need the receipts to file away for our expenses. Why does Dropbox value annual subscribers by sending them email receipts—But not the monthly subscribers?I deleted my Gmail account, and now I can't access Dropbox because it sends an email there
I have an old Gmail account that I deleted and can no longer access. When I try to login to my Dropbox account, it sends a code to that email address. I know the password, can't receive the code to that email address. Can someone update the email address on my old account or offer another solution?
