Conversation with Microsoft support I had after 1 hour:

“You’ll need to wait for 15 minutes”
“By the way did you know you have 5GB free OneDrive storage with a Microsoft account?”
“I’m a customer of a 1TB onedrive plan”
“Well if you’re interested in using it, you’ve got 5GB for free” 🤦‍♂️😔

Poor guy... He was just trying to help, damn it!

By the way, did you know you have 5GB free OneDrive storage?

What was the initial issue about, if I may?

I’m sorry but our team are currently working hard to fix it

By the way did you know that you have 5GB free OneDrive storage with a Microsoft account?

Not sure if you knew but you also have 5GB free with your Microsoft account.

But that seems to be common with ms support, they always seem to mention a small benifit of your account, had it with my Xbox account when they told me a gold subscription gave me 4 games a month when I messaged them about an issue with my subscription .-.

@devTea @lxmcf I think @bcye commited "sudoku" with all the free stuff he got :x

@Jilano is that a pun for seppuku?

It’s probably something to do with turning your negative experience positive.

@devTea ... Maybe? :D
It comes from unknowledgeable people trying to use words they don't know. A bit like "Shakira law, thou hips shall not lie".

@620hun Pretty much, yes, and it must be in their check list whenever they get a call.

"Your machine crashed after an update, the took fire, entire house burnt down, but hey, gotta get dem free 5GB mate!"

Well, sorry, your Windows license is corrupted and you will be sued for stealing our intellectual property.

But hey, after you get out of the jail, you can get 5 GBs free with your Microsoft account!

@Jilano which free stuff

@bcye I meant the "5GB etc." But wanted to avoid the redundancy with all the other comments, haha

Anyway, I truly am sorry for your misfortune and hope your issue got resolved.

@Jilano yeah, eventually after 2 hours

@devTea why not just use *GAME END*, it has Pyrocynical Seal of Approval

Just checking that the OP realizes he has 5GB free OneDrive storage with his Microsoft account?

@rdcoder It backfired.

Recently I was calling an ISP and had to wait for 25 minutes after answering some questions to a speaking bot (wow, it's happening). Then I spoke to a support guy which, at the end of the call, did let me know that there is a offer for a faster connection for just 5€/month more.

@Jilano Hey! We say commit sudoku here too :D

@SmollPotato *transatlantic high five*

@Jilano you dam right *high five*

They are forced to ask, why are you being an ass about it?

fucking 🤣
