WOW! Apple just gave me 20GB till 2050!
« on: October 01, 2012, 05:10:36 PM »
If you had a Moibleme account, you got a 20GB bonus last year for a problem Apple created, I forget exactly what... Anyway, everyone who did got an email last month reminding us that we'd lose that 20GBs at the end of September. Apparently, someone checked their account today and found the same thing I did. I suppose I still need to pay the $40 but that will cover me until 2050! I'll probably not be around to renew by then!!! Thinking.gif
Only thing I can figure is that the programmer used the Clock app on the iPad... which doesn't have one... wallbash.gif

"Ends on /50" ... maybe they mean 1950 and you're already done! rofl.gif

Well, you may be right. I've told I over-the-hill, ie:"done", before... dntknw.gif

Setting up my new/old iPad yesterday, I noticed that I still have ~25GB of storage space. I think the extra 20 is only good till what would have been my renewal date next year... I'm positive that if I actually used more than the regular 5GB I would get a message reminding me that anything over that will be double the normal cost in the 45 seconds they'd give me to move it all elsewhere!!! eek2.gif
