Sign in to your hotmail account with your user name and password 2- Go to options button from top right 3- Go to personal from left menu 4- Go to profile 5-choose country to be unite states of America 6- choose any state from the drop down menu 7- Enter the proper zip code from the list below: California 90001 , Indiana 46001 , Florida ,Ohio 43001,New Hampshire 03031 8- choose your language to be English 9- Press ok 10- Copy and paste the following in your browser : http://by17fd.bay17.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/Accountclose That's will deactivate your account temporary to complete the upgrade steps 9- Login again to your account and choose to reactivate it 10- select the option of free 250 MB 11- press continue on the next appeared pages 12- you will find your mail box became 25 MB first , and in few days it will become 250 MB
I think the most important question is will you still have all your mail. Dont want to loose any of that M$ approved Spam now.
I was one of the first people to be upgaded to that automatically, they like me so much, maybe because they like to read all my secret messages I send
Amazing... but why not just get a gmail with a gbyte? Seems a little easier - I'm really just wondering, 'cause I have a 2mb hotmail account, and I don't really care to upgrade it... Isn't it still rather slow compared to gmail
I feel the same way, miko67. If you have to do something illegal to upgrade your HotMail account, your mail conceivably could be in danger if they discover the deception. Why take that chance when you don't have to?
do u really think it is a trouble??? any way i have agmail account oh god iam going to fix my hotmail account again....
Hotmails recent inclusion of 250mb instead of the former 2mb accounts sounds like a desperate struggling attempt at keeping customers. Honestly though, go with Gmail and dump your old account.
Is it safe to do so? will i risk lose my hotmail account? poor me still having 2MB hotmail account @.@
i guess this is an old post but why would anyone switch if you can use 2GB of gmail account? Do people even use hotmail anymore just curious?
1. It's not old. It's 3 years old! For all I know, Hotmail has probably increased its limits too by now. Kind of pointless to revive this thread, IMO. 2. Not everyone likes Gmail. I use it occasionally for certain purposes but I find the interface clunky and annoying.
