Hotmail upgraded to 25mb!!!! by alegator on 08-30-2005 at 10:26 PM

I just noticed that my Hotmail account has increased the mailbox capacity from 2Mb to 25Mb...I'm impressed!! :-)
Anyways, I thought that Hotmail is now 250Mb...I wonder why they agve me 25Mb only...any feedback on this? Thanks.

this is very old lol you start with 25MB and they eventually (years later lol) give you 250MB i waited 3 months on my current account and 2 on the other ;)

I got 250MB after one month on my latest Hotmail account. 1 month is the quoted time as well.

There is a big thread that i cant find. Well here is the info.
If you are stuck with 25mb and wanna get 250mb then goto ur options and use US as your country, and put any state and pin (zip) code.
I used Maschesstussets and the pin code was 01007

The remaining part is in the thread i was talking about ....

Read Leito's Hotmail Trick for upgrading

I waited for 3 days and i was done .... dont do spain cause it wont work now as this service is now only available to americans :)

NB this only works for @hotmail.com accounts not @msn.com

i trired it months ago on an @msn account but didn't work, and as mentioned in the Leito's Hotmail Trick for upgrading he said "Edit2: @msn.com accounts cannot be closed from Passport.net, I didn't try other alternatives" well actually u can close it from the memberservices site ! http://memberservices.passport.net  i tried it and closed that account.

but anyway msn accounts wont change :D

I tried out the two month free msn premium this week, anyways i I knew from the start it wasnt my thing since I'd never use the browser and it just wasnt worth the money. anyway after I subscribed to it, my inbox went upto 2000mb, I unsubscribed, and lucky me, it never went back down again.

yeah it requires your credit card info or debit, but they don't charge your card.
BTW just checked my statement, nothing at all went out.
