No More DropBox 48 GB for AT&T Galaxy S3's!?!?

**boses1234** · 06-20-2012, 08:42 AM

Apparently two major carriers (AT&T and Verizon) have opted out from the DropBox 48 GB promotion for Galaxy S3 buyers. It is unknown whether Sprint and T-Mobile provide it however; it is not mentioned. But under most circumstances, it would seem like there would be no reason for Sprint and T-Mobile to not provide the promotion.

Hypothese to this includes the fact that AT&T and Verizon don't want the free space to allow people to bombard their networks with people uploading and downloading. Also it could be the fact that AT&T and Verizon want to introduce their own cloud services soon.

Any thoughts on this? Or any idea how to get the free 48GB?

While the 48GB is "free to you", it is not actually free; the carrier has to pay for it (at a huge discount of course). AT&T and Verizon have chosen not to pay for it.

Buy from a carrier which is offering the promotion. That's really the only way

And your 48 GB expires in 2 years....and I agree....totally old news.

I was under the impression from a review by A.C. earlier this week\last week, they did include the 48GB.

Nonetheless, like others have stated, the additional space expires after 2 years, at least you have an option to install a memory card, versus not with the HTC One X. Just saying

Today I was creating a new Dropbox account and sent an invite from my wife's account, who has the S3 and she has 48gb added today. It is only good for a year but it looks like it is back for AT&T S3 owners

Maybe it's only for new accounts?
