I am not able to receive the 6 digit code in my email

Dear Dropbox

I am not able to receive the 6 digit code in my email. In fact, I am not receiving any emails from Dropbox.
I've added no-reply@dropbox.com to my contacts.
I've checked my spam folder.
I've verified my address is correct.
I have also verified that the email address can receive mails from other sources.
I can also send you an email from that address if need be. I just need an address to send it to
I have actually had this problem for several years, but it has only become a problem for me now as I have gotten a new phone and I cannot verify my Dropbox app on it as I am not getting the code.
I have full access to my Dropbox account on my desktop and on the webpage.

Please help me

      Hey Walter,

       

      I am having the same issue as U7lo - trying to log into my work account but not receiving the code via email. I've done all the troubleshooting that U7lo did too. Can you help please?

       

      (I'm logged in here on a personal account)

       

      Many thanks,

      Kieran

      Hi there, could you please contact me via my email as well? As I am having the exact same issue and I need to access DB for work purposes immediately. I have done all of the above steps and still no luck. I am also not receiving the code as some sort of notification. Please get back to me asap. Thanks

      Hi Walter,

       

      Please can you urgently reach out, I have a different account that has been set up with an incorrect email. each time I have created a ticket I have had an email to say its resolved and I've had no communication. 

       

      I need to access the account but can't verify as the email was misspelled in set up.
