My account got downgraded - can you help me?
I received an email 2 days ago telling me I have until September 6th to pay for my next month of Dropbox Pro. I was downgraded this morning. I need it upgraded again until the said date. I plan on pa...
Hey Chris!
Sorry for being unclear. Your settings with Dropbox were likely on as you received the emails as you said yourself. What I meant was that your auto-renew settings in the GooglePlay store were switched to Off.
The experience you're describing sounds very much as if Google switched off your auto-renew. That can happen when there is a payment issue, or just if you cancelled through Google. At this moment, it looks like this is an issue with Google and not with Dropbox, but I can't verify this until you log a support ticket with us.
Hope that helps!

Super User IIWell, I really need to upload some files this morning
So pay for and upgrade today and you can. Instantly.
You can't tell someone they have until a certain date to pay and then change that.
Log a ticket and request support, but, ultimately you are not paying for the service (which by the 22nd of August they'd tried numerous times to charge you for and failed). The same would happen on Business - in fact lots of companies wouldn't even give you the grace period and instantly cut you off.
Personally I think they've been more than reasonable - especially when you consider they email you before hand to say they are going to charge you so you've actually had ample notice that you are going to be charged.
Effectively what you are after is two weeks free use.
