Dropbox StaffHow to get more Dropbox storage space for free
Hello everyone!
I wanted to show you exactly what happens and what steps you'll need to follow in order to get more free space in your Dropbox.
From your Account Settings page you see all you...
The only time referral space is removed from an account is when it has been determined that a referral had been earned through illegitimate means. When that happens, all referral space is usually removed.
The only way to know the actual cause is to contact Support.

"From this page you can invite your friends to join Dropbox by emailing them, sending them a direct link to join or sharing your invitation on Facebook."
I did it and it didn't work:
(I went to Dropbox web environment / folder / copy link, then my friend registered and installed a Windows app)

The items mentioned were moved to a new Referrals page.

You sent them a shared link to a file or folder. That's not the same as sending a referral invite, and doesn't work as a referral. The link you have to send to someone is the referral link from your Referrals page. Unfortunately, since your friend already registered, there's no way to earn a referral for their account.
