Hotmail finally back!!! aahhhh

Jan 31, 2011 12:23


I had my Hotmail account suspended back in August last year, and I finally got it back.
Most of my usernames and passwords I use online are there.

How did it get suspended? Well, I had an install of OneNote 2010 which wanted to link to my Hotmail account, which I was happy to do as it all talks to each other, and its an extentsion of the Dropbox software I swear by.

But silly me entered the wrong password into OneNote, which then proceeded to try to log into my Hotmail account. Microsoft thought it was an intruder hack and suspended the account.

It took this long because (a) I had to prove it was me and my email accounts (b) whenever "they" agreed it was my account, they redirected me to a password reset screen, which reset the password, but still the account was suspended.

Cut a long story short, they finally saw the light and let me have it, and all 800 unread emails....

it, hotmail
