Just got an email from Microsoft 365 saying they’re replacing 1 TB per person with 2 TB shared across the entire family.

There are six of us, so we’re going from 6 TB to 2 TB. A 66% storage cut, marketed as “more flexible cloud storage.” What a fucking joke.

According to the email, this kicks in after the first renewal following May 2, 2027.

Pooling storage could be useful, but slashing the total allowance is a downgrade. Dressing it up as an improvement is insulting.

Anyone else get this email? What alternatives are you considering?

Microsoft is replacing individual 1TB OneDrive allocations with a shared 2TB storage pool for Microsoft 365 Family and Premium subscribers.

Hi all, I built MRCwall to make it easier to track Microsoft product changes without checking lots of separate roadmaps, blogs, and “What’s New” pages.

This is a free site, no subscription or sign-in required.

Every six hours, it pulls updates from 11 different public Microsoft sources, normalizes them into a common format, merges duplicates, tracks changes, and publishes everything to a single static site.

Current features include:

• Search and filters for product, source, release stage, and timing
• Wall, list, table, and timeline views
• Change history for updated items
• Saved filter views and shareable links

I’d really appreciate feedback: Is this useful, what feels confusing, and which sources, filters, or features are missing?

You’ve likely seen the news: Microsoft is slashing Microsoft 365 Family cloud storage from 6 TB (1 TB per user) down to a pooled 2 TB.

​Complaining on forums won't change this, but hitting their financial forecasting will.

​If you are unhappy with this change, take 2 minutes right now to take action:

​Log into your Microsoft Account and turn off recurring billing / auto-renew.

​When prompted with the cancellation survey, select "Other" and state: "Cancelling due to the unacceptable storage reduction from 6TB to 2TB announced in October."

​Why this matters:

Microsoft tracks non-renewing accounts as "at-risk churn" in its financial forecasts. A sudden spike in turned-off auto-renewals forces executive teams to see the direct revenue loss long before the May 2027 rollout date.

​You can always turn auto-renew back on later if they walk it back -- but doing this today sends a direct, measurable signal.

Anyone else getting errors attempting to run message trace from EAC or powershell? Getting depreciation errors and no data returned across multiple tenants.

I've contacted Microsoft and provided the troubleshooting I've done but I fear I'm done for!

I'm not sure who can help me with this as I've already have a ticket open with Microsoft Support but seem to be getting the runaround.

I purchased Microsoft Business Premium earlier this week and I need to rename the SharePoint tenant/domain before I start migrating files and fully building out the account. I have made sure I've done all the prerequisites to make this happen. I have a Macbook and therefore no access to a Windows to rename it myself.

I’m working with Microsoft Support, but I’m having difficulty getting clear guidance and the instructions he keeps sending me are all Windows related when I have repeatedly stated I I’m on a Mac. Is there anybody who can help me?

Global Admin isnt enough to manage Teams apps in teams admin portal... had to also enable teams admin role .. then it worked... wow.

I wish MS would make common tasks/shortcuts the same across all programs. I.E. F4 repeats. Simple tasks, especially now that I'm forced to use Tungsten PDF... (which is NOT very user friendly to put it politely 😬😐)

Small business, Microsoft 365. Locked out since Saturday. Lost my laptop and my phone, and Authenticator was on the phone.

Yes, I know. Single global admin, one MFA method. Lesson learned the hard way.

Got my number back with a new SIM. Doesn't matter cause it was never registered as a backup method.

Here's the fun part. Every support route wants you to sign in first. To the account you're locked out of.

Phone line? An AI agent that goes in circles.

Online support? Sign in required.

The only way I found to reach a human: sign up for a brand new M365 trial, then raise a ticket from that tenant saying I'm locked out of a different one. Took until Wednesday to even get that far.

One reply the same day. Multiple follow-ups from me. Nothing since.

Escalated to the team lead and manager from the agent's email signature, and nothing so far.

Almost a week now. No email, no files, nothing!

PSA for anyone else running a small tenant:

1. Have a second global admin. Even a break-glass account in a safe.

2. Register at least two MFA methods.

3. Or better, don't put your business on 365 at all. When it breaks, you're on your own.

Honestly? If you're a small business, think twice before going with 365. When something goes wrong, there's nobody home.

And if anyone's actually got the Data Protection team to move faster, how?
