No. The promotional space is not transferable once it has been redeemed.
Why am I not eligible to redeem the promotional space?
You won’t be able to redeem the promotional space if:
- You’ve already redeemed a promotion on a Dell device. You’re only eligible to redeem the same type of promotional deal once.
- For example, you can't redeem the Dell promotion more than once, even if you buy multiple eligible Dell devices
- The Dropbox app wasn’t pre-loaded on your device.
- You bought your device pre-owned or refurbished, and the previous owner redeemed the promotion associated with the device. Each device can only earn promotional space once.
- Your device is subject to country and retailer exclusions.
Additionally, some Dell promotions may only apply to new Dropbox users.
What happens when my promotional deal expires?
When your promotional deal expires, your Dropbox space limit will automatically return to what it was before the promotion was redeemed. For example, if you have a Basic account, your limit will return to 2 GB plus any space you've earned through referrals or other bonuses.
All your content will remain accessible, even if you’re over your space limit. If you're over your limit after expiration, you'll no longer be able to save new photos, videos, and docs to Dropbox. To get more space, you can upgrade to Dropbox Plus or learn how to get more storage space on your Dropbox account.
