: Strange happenings with hotmail accounts : ferdinand_the_yak October 13, 2004, 11:12:33 PM I opened my hotmail account today and noiced that my 2MB storage had magically multiplied itself into a 250MB storage account. I'm not complaining of course ;D, but its strange! Anyone else have this happen to them? I checked and did not sign up to pay extra for a larger account or anything like that. Hmmm...
I was going to set up a gmail account (still might as I have an invite from a friend) but don't think I really need to ATM :) And I realise that my next post will mean I am the only person apart from Roz to hit 1000 posts and get that cool 1000 post pic that she had! Oh dear ::) : Re:Strange happenings with hotmail accounts : Roz October 14, 2004, 12:05:51 AM I am awaiting that next post... but looking forward to my 2000th :D
Like Hermione in PS "honestly - don't either of you two read"?? ok it's vjust you FTY but this 250 meg prezzie is microsoft's pathetic response to the 1 gig of space G mail gives you : Re:Strange happenings with hotmail accounts : ferdinand_the_yak October 14, 2004, 06:34:47 PM Woo! 1000 posts hurrah ;D
But none of my forends have gotten one... just me ATM ??? : Re:Strange happenings with hotmail accounts : robwaddle October 14, 2004, 06:40:42 PM FTY - I had an email weeks ago about this. The extra size is a fiddle :-X Sometime in the spring, they're gonna start charging people like me who run their email accounts thro' Outlook or a similar email client.
I think it's going to be £19.99 a year, Coincidentally, that's what they were previously charging for the larger mailbox. Bill giveth, and he also taketh away ::) :-X Rob : Re:Strange happenings with hotmail accounts : Roz October 14, 2004, 08:24:29 PM Hmm... if there was gmail messenger I'd switch to it like a shot!
: Re:Strange happenings with hotmail accounts : Nienna October 14, 2004, 09:35:04 PM I had one of those notifications re. inbox size increase for my hotmail account a few weeks ago ... won't make me use it any more than I do at the moment! :P
If they want to charge me for it then I'll just let it lapse ;) : Re:Strange happenings with hotmail accounts : blackcat20 October 15, 2004, 07:08:42 AM Both of my hotmail accounts went up to 250 yesterday, and I dont remember ever
getting an email telling me that it was going to happen... : Re:Strange happenings with hotmail accounts : Roz October 15, 2004, 04:27:58 PM Mine has also gone up to 250 meg now! Which is quite handy since I was always on the dangerous end of my 2 meg of space.
Don't worry FTY they were just being done in order of importance ;) : Re:Strange happenings with hotmail accounts : ferdinand_the_yak October 15, 2004, 04:58:26 PM Don't worry FTY they were just being done in order of importance ;) Ha ha... so that was it - I should have guessed ;) ;D |
