We do not know very much if we have to take this information from Microsoft, which announces the reduction of the storage space in OneDrive, to 5 GB. It is of course the 15 GB offered free of charge by Microsoft and 15 GB that it offered as a bonus for the roll camera.
Starting with August 10, 2016, the free storage space will be modified, from 15 GB to 5 GB. I was saying we didn't know whether to take this news seriously or not, because Microsoft has “threatened” And at the end of last year, with this change.
Therefore, users who have connected their OneDrive account on iOS, Android or Windows Phone, will lose the 15GB offered as a roll camera, and the 15GB offered free of charge. A clarification here. A few years ago, the free plan included 15 GB. After this possible change, the space will reduce to 5GB, and if Microsoft will take a step back, we do not exclude the option that in 2017, the space offered in Ondedrive will reach as much as a diskew.
The users of OneDrive who have paid accounts, will not be affected by this change, but they will not be exempted from cutting the space offered as a bonus.
“We recently announced some changes to OneDrive. On August 10, 2016, the free storage that comes with OneDrive will change from 15 GB to 5 GB. We are also discontinuing the 15 GB camera roll bonus.
These changes are rolling out to our free and new users. However, because you have purchased an additional storage plan, your account will not be affected by these changes, and there is no action you need to take. The price and details of your storage plan are not changing at this time, and as long as you keep your current paid plan, you will keep your current storage.*
* Existing expiration dates on storage promotions still apply. “
We cannot say if this measure will have any impact on the credibility of Microsoft, but it is the right of each user to judge and think twice before using the services and / or the products of a company. Be it and the giant Microsoft.
