Boycott Title

Hotmail Deactivated Thousands of Accounts w/o Warning!

Boycott Description

See site: http://www.contacthelp.com/directory/Hotmail?ListingID=287

Many, many users across different support sites complain that their accounts were shut down due to some hacker getting into Hotmail, and such. The accounts were deactivated with no warning to anyone and many people lost a lot of imperative information, documants and pictures.

These people, including myself went into our accounts one day to find that we could not log in and our passwords have never ever changed.

Many of the account holders tried to contact support for Hotmail and got no where aside from additionally frustrated. They could locate live support and any little bit of support that came across was of no help to anyone in the end as the answers were not related to the questions being asked.

This is valid for legal action against the owners of hotmail of which a specific lawyer obtained the information on. There will be several law suits in coming weeks against this activity that has taken place on people's accounts unless something restores the accounts quickly.

Boycott Demands

Restore the accounts within the week or many lawsuites will be taken up with the Hotmail service providers.

All my important info lost

There are apparently being very apathetic to the fact that their screw-up has cost many, many people to lose a great deal of important information, documents, and photographs!  Not to mention, entire contact lists.  Sue those suckers!!!!

I've been a hotmail customer ever since my first computer, and suddenly, with the purchase of a laptop I'm told that my account is no longer available to me.  All the information and contacts have been lost, and when I was given a telephone number to call I was told there was nothing to be done.  What a way to run a business

BOYCOTT HOTMAIL

UNABLE TO ACCESS MY HOTMAIL ACCOUNT BECAUSE I CAN'T REMBER MY PASS WORD THAT WAS ENTERED ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO. NO ONE THAT I CONTACTED AT HOTMAIL  WAS NOT ABLE/WILLING (?) TO TRY TO RESOLVE MY PROBLEM.  THIS IS A CASE THAT "BIG BROTHER" KNOWS WHAT IS BEST FOR YOU/ME! AT MY AGE (69) I DON'T LIKE BEING SHOVED AROUND BY A COMPANY THAT DOSN'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT US "LITTLE" PEOPLE.
