How to merge 2 Microsoft accounts?

Hello,

I created a Outlook email account and I have a other outlook email address that used to be a Hotmail address. Before I knew that you can rename a Outlook account I created another account with the same name. Is it possible to merge the two accounts.

Thanks,

    What is going on here.   Microsoft would you please find a way to do this.  Now I am paying for an Office365 subscription that has minutes and am not able to use them.

    How can I merge or move everything in my skype profile over?

    Thanks much!

    Did a little digging, and my real reason for merging my accounts is to get my purchases from my old account to my new one - found a way to do this with an Xbox 360 :)

    No new workarounds.  You can open one of your Outlook.com accounts, click Options>Options (or More mail settings), then "Import email accounts", then "Other email provider" and import the mail from the other Outlook.com account.
