Hi, starting today a pink bar at the top of my outlook page stating 'From February 1st, you'll need more storage to send or receive emails.' then provides 2 links to 'Manage Storage' & 'Get More Storage'. There is a second window bottom left hand side stating in red font 'Microsoft Storage' '14.6GB used of 5GB (292%)' 'Get More Storage'. What is going on? I've had this account for 10 + years.

    The organisation has either filled in idiots who dont know what they are doing or someone really greedy who had no smartness to improve revenue by innovation and is moving the goal post in a different direction. Either ways it is time to move away from this time wasting tool. Already spend 15 min daily cleaning the mailbox pof all the junk and spam and real emails falling in the trap. The organisation has lost its focus from its duties and concentrating on making money out of air.
