Here’s some simple steps on how to upgrade your Hotmail account to 250MB from 2MB.
1.- Go to My Messages>Options.
2.- Go to Personal >my profile
3.- Choose United States for Country, Florida for States and postal code 33152 save changes
4.- Go to www.passport.net and sign in.
5.- Choose to close my .net Passport account under Customer Support.
6.- You will get this prompt “Your .NET Passport account has an “@hotmail.com” e-mail address. To close this account, you need to contact Hotmail Customer Support.” Just click on Contact Hotmail button.
7.- You will come to the Close account screen. Don’t worry about what’s written there concerning your emails will be deleted. What they really meant was your email will be in the process of deletion if you don’t reactivate. Just click on Close My Account.
8.- Open your account again and reactivate your account.
Follow the steps and walla! you’ve got 25mb and in a couple of weeks you get
250mb for free
Depite something inside me warning me nto to try it, I went ahead. And guess what IT WORKED. Thanks a lot.
Adam: I was just as sceptical at first, but coz I trusted my friend who taught me this, I just did it. You’re most welcome! 🙂
This trick is valid 🙂 Previously I’ve made a similar post at here.
But, it’s 100% assurance that your account will be automatically upgraded to 250MB in weeks? As far as my own experiences are concerned, after 2 months, I’ve yet to get the increase of capacity to 250MB 🙂
where can i find the word get in touch with hotmail. i could not fine one? (no. 6)
hey spade, i’ve revised the steps above. You should be able to follow without any probs.
****! It doesn’t work after 3 months!
It works for me to get until 25MB only as well. Oh well, stick to Gmail ok.
THANKS A LOT, NICE INSTRUCTIONS THERE, 🙂 IT WORKED REALLY GOOD ON THE 25MB, NOW ILL JUST HAVE TO WAIT 3 MONTHS FOR THE 250MB BUT THANKS 🙂
but what about my emails which are in my mail box and what about my contect list and msn friends???
any one can give me sugestions
Dude…that was darn clever….....Oh my…Thanks Alot…./`__’
hiiiiii
slm
Dude…
Thanks alot man !
Works great !
I was trying this for @msn.com account and it doesnt work. Although, with @hotmail.com it worked :):) thanks a lot! keep going!
Im waitin for a month now and nothing happens…
I have my email account upgraded to 25MB but still not upgraded to 250MB even after more than 2 months !! Any hint on how to get the upgrade from 25MB to 250MB ?
Hai, Leona. I read your biodata and I found that our interests are similar. I love to play the piano and guitar. I love music very much. My ambition is to be a musician. I also believe in Jesus Christ. I attend a church nearby. I live somewhere in Penang. I’m looking forward to know you and make you as my online friend.
Mark: I have no idea how to do that…I’m also just waiting myself 😛
Abigail: Great to know someone similar to me…you can write to me anytime. leonalim[at]gmail[dot]com Looking forward to hear from you then.
Leona: For how long have you been waiting ? Coz they said that we should allow 1 month for the upgrade to take place and it’s been around 3 months and still I only got 25MB. May be we should write to microsoft support !
Mark: I had waited about 2 months? Anyways, we can’t write to Microsoft Support. We in Asia are not supposed to get the 25Mb in the first place. This is after all tricking Microsoft. So, like I said, I’m not too fussed whether or not I get the 250Mb at all now, since I’ve got Gigabytes at Gmail. Do you want a Gmail invite?
Leona: Thanks but I already have an account on Gmail and I guess and like you said we tricked Microsoft to get the 25Mb :):).. Anyway, we’ll have to wait, hopefully we get the 250MB.
I cant seem to update and save changes to my Profile? any known reason why….and what do u mean by EEUU?
Hi… i tried all th steps…. but reviewing the location info…. doesn’t chage anything…. is this OK
it appears that hotmail has found out about this trick and has kind of stopped people from being able to change their location. when i tried mine many months ago it was ok. as you can see. many people manage to do it. but recently i tried to help a friend, but it didn’t work. sorry.
It worked in the beginning but i still have only 25 MB… How to get the 250 MB i still don’t know and still waiting
Just tried and it worked for me (hotmail increased to 25MB).
Cheerios!
Sounds like a great idea… but will I lose my all my important e-mails if I deactivate my account?
Thanks it is working ok i got 25 mb mail box thanks a lot …....
Best Regards

it works!
your GR8.
Thanks Mei Ling! It really helps when u got all those stupid big-sized junk mails clogging up your account. God bless!
It is working perfect… now i guess i have to wait for a while to have my 250 mb hotmail account. Actually even 25 mb is fine with me.. 😛
Helal 🙂
You forgot to mention that the account language should be English =) that’s no prob 4 you but i’m neither American or Canadian or British etc.
salaam friends
this is great to have 25mbs of inbox and 10mbs of attachments
don’t do some thing wrong to lose your account as my friend did

the best method is just send mails to your own account. it should exceed 25 mb . hotmail will automatically upgrade your account to 250 ..
i am very happy thaks for this
This is awesome. 😀 ver very happy!
Omg You are amazing!!
Thank you soo much.
I’ve tried several times to upgrade my hotmail storage … Unseccessfull. let’s me try one again – Hope it will work.
Jan 4th 2006, thanks it worked… i got 25 mb … now will wait for the 250 !
thanks a lot for giving me 25MB, but i don’t get 250 mb. Is it possible for 2GB in my account?? if so, then give me mail plzzzzzzzzzzzzz
sagorr, create a gmail account if u need gigabytes of storage. u can’t expect microsoft to give you that much storage…
I am so impressed with this website. I also agree, hey I am upside down or even right side up :-). Hopefully you keep the site going.Thanks again my friend!.
Amazing!! Thanks a lot Leona!! Guess what? My mails weren’t deleted even after I deactivated and reactivated my account!! This is soooo cool!!
