Hotmail storage upgrade begins

[MostlyWrong]

I'm on bay 4 as well, still nothing. However, I did sign up for a new account when I heard that new MSN accounts were getting 2GB. I had 2 GB for about 2 weeks, then got knocked back down to 2MB :(

i hated it that they said they were going to upgrade all users like a month ago and they did not....

ive had gmail for two months....and i gotta tell u, i hate having to notify every1 of the new account...but i guess its worth it. i do love gmails look and feel...and the usability.

anyways, it wouldnt harm me to have 200 mb on my hotmail account.

btw im on bay1... and still nothing.

i still get "server too busy" message from them sometimes. whats the point of having 100mb or 250mb or whatever it is if i can't consistently get to the site?

no upgrade here yet either (cant check what bay it is just yet).

2 megs gets a little 'tight' after a couple of years but cant complain too much about it. though the fact that something like a space upgrade gets announced and a couple of months later, there's still nothing - that is rather unexpected (read 'irresponsible')

however, what's really annoying is the bi-weekly spam from hotmail staff (that you cant filter out) pushing you to buy an account upgrade for more space. that really *beep*s me off.

I agree. I'm fed up with being screwed by Hotmail. They spam me, and give me no space. 2 MB is just not enough. Not even close. I'd say 5 MB would be a good amount for me (would fill my needs).

The upgrade is to 250 MB, not 200.

And what happened to the users who grabbed the free 2 GB and filled up their email box above 2 MB? Did it delete messages?

not impressed with customer services by chat & phone.

I was in a chat with pablo and he said it should of been done by now & he said for me to send msn an email,I asked if that would help and he told be probablly not.

I rang customer services and spoke to sum guy and he told me I had been misinformed about the upgrade & he kept talking over me & really couldnt wait to get off the phone to me.

the guy sed to me the upgrade will happen by the end of September for subscribers & by the end of the year for non subscribers.

as a loyal premium subscriber I'm rather p'd off by the customer support I have had & I deserve better. :angry:

Hotmail jerks. Why did some get upgrades and some didn't?

The only other person that has Hotmail that I spoke to recently got an upgrade last week.
