Ive been with hotmail for about 12 years and have no intention of changing to outlook and now even hotmail has crashed ,when will these company’s realise that when it aint broke ,dont fix it!

You may have no intention to change to outlook, but it will change for you, there is nothing you can do about it.

according to the BBC website You can have the option to stay with hotmail account!

This is from hotmail site.

Some users have suggested there have been similar issues on the SkyDrive cloud storage service, but Microsoft has offered no comment on those reports.

Hotmail users will be migrated to the new Outlook.com service, but can retain their Hotmail.com email address should they wish.

The move has been seen as an attempt by the Windows-maker to claw back ground lost to competitors such as Google, whose Gmail service has proved immensely popular since its launch in 2004.

my hotmail tells me its going to automatically update its self to outlook and i dont want it too

i remember watching an interview with one of the directors a few years ago, he was saying that new email addresses were getting spam before hotmail sent them an email to confirm the account!!

is this the same for live acounts too? as in [email protected]/co.uk

mine is still hotmail, and i've had nothing telling me it's changing to outlook. my girlfriends has changed to outlook and it doesn't seem too bad to be honest, she doesnt like it though

I got the dreaded email this morning . Agree -if it aint broke ,flipping well dont fix it thank you very much!! Is Outlook the same as Outlook Exress? Ive vague recollection of being told it wasnt as secure as Hotmail. Any comments?

my hotmail is saying its going to change to outlook,I can do it now or it will change for me.Ive already lost msn messenger to skype although I didn't use messenger much but one of my friends contacts me on it but I can't get it back now.

You get what ou pay for. Exactly how much did you pay for the Hotmail account that you're used for the last twelve years?

not quite the point methinks , MikeT.

mine changed to outlook yesterday, have no choice to change back to hotmail, worse luck.
