What do you have to do to get the extra 50g with a Note 2? i started an account from my phone and i only have 2.5g
 
It is also for existing accounts but not sure how it works. Two days ago I got my SGN2 and after Dropbox download and sign in I received email "Dropbox bonus space received!". It is 50 GB and my used space is 2.5GB.
 
Sign into DB using the phone app.

BTW~ whose you're carrier. It's my understanding not all carriers opted for this. I'm on Sprint and rec'd the 50GB storage when I signed in.
 
Samsung web site states that Verizon and ATT opted out of the Samsung/Dropbox bonus. Guessing these two don't want you actually using up all the data package you paid for.

:mad: Surprise, surprise, surprise. :mad:

I'm also upset, VZW shipped without the earbuds in the Note 2. I have no shortage of earbuds, but just another way of Big Red to sock it to us.

I'm on Sprint, got my Note 2 last week, signed into a new account on DB, but still only have 2.5GB. I think the extra 500MB was for agreeing to upload my photos.

Edit: When I signed in from my phone, I did get a notification email a few minutes later. Thanks for the tip! :)
 
I was all about this until I realized it's only for 2 years. The last thing I need to do is get hooked on a pay service.
 
For dropbox I had to do certain tasks to activate my 50GB, one task was email other people and tell them about dropbox,
 
As a huge user of Dropbox (we use this with our virtual expert witness practice for all of our files), I just have to say that whatever the cost, it is 100% worth it two years from now. This is one product I use on a day to day basis and don't know if I could live without it at this point.

It's tied into so many apps and devices at this point, making it invaluable to me.

I think thats the key...I got the 50gb after logging on, and then i had to activate dropbox on another computer, notify a friend, read some tutorials, etc. Then the 50gb showed up, but its only for 2 years...

on T-mobile btw, if that makes a difference.
