It also reduced storage on free accounts from 15GB to 5GB.
Therefore, on Friday, Microsoft apologized to these customers and announced it is changing its policy, again.
It also said that are giving the customers the chance to get their 15GB of free storage back.
However, Microsoft is not going back to its promise of providing unlimited free storage.
Microsoft blamed customer abuse as the reason for reversing the promise while making the formal announcement.
They also said that a few people were storing too much stuff in their unlimited OneDrive accounts.
Some of us actually store a normal amount of stuff in OneDrive.
Why makes us pay for those who went over the top?
Who finds it just unbelievable how this thread exploded with no response at all?
It makes you wonder just what the hell is going on at Microsoft.
The offer will be valid for a year, through January 31 2016, the spokesperson says.
Heres the full blog post:
In November we made a business decision to reduce storage limits for OneDrive.
We realize the announcement came across as blaming customers for using our product.
For this, we are truly sorry and would like to apologize to the community.
We realize the announcement came across as blaming customers for using our product.
