Steps
- Log in to dropbox.com.
- Click your avatar (picture or initials) in the bottom-left corner.
- Click Manage account.
- Click Cancel plan at the bottom of the page.
- Pick a reason, click Continue canceling, and follow the prompts.
- Look for the email "Dropbox Plan will not renew".
Refunds, timing and things to know
- Your account changes to free Dropbox Basic at the end of your current billing cycle and you are not charged again. Basic has 2 GB. If you are over the limit you may not be able to sync or upload, and Dropbox may delete files to get under it.
- Deleting the app or letting your card expire does not cancel. Your bank may pass the charge to a new card.
- Refunds: Dropbox says payments are not refundable in most cases. If you think there is a billing error, contact Dropbox support.
- Can't cancel online? Dropbox accepts cancellation by mail; its help page has a template.
If someone else bills you
- No Cancel plan button? You probably bought on a phone. Cancel in the Apple or Google Play app store.
Save proof. Take a screenshot of the confirmation screen and keep the confirmation email. If you are charged again after canceling, our billing error letter can help.
