Hi there Terafuji - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
Can you please share your original ticket's ID so that we can look it up in our system?
Also, could you maybe forward us a screenshot of the exact error you're getting when trying to create a Dropbox account with the email address that's associated with the deleted account?
Thanks!

Absolutely, Walter! The ticket ID is: 24138730. It also looks like when I responded to the ticket via email, it created two additional IDs: 24291460 and 24291414, though they should be identical.

Navigating to dropbox.com and selecting "sign-in" is giving the same error, though I do understand why sign in will give the error since they told me my account was deleted.

Thanks for the ticket numbers and the screenshot too Terafuji - much appreciated.
I was able to locate them in our system and I can see that they're all closed now.
May I open a new one on your behalf using the email address that's linked to your profile here, on our Community to investigate further?
