More changes will follow the news that Amazon customers will soon have to start paying for Prime. For The Express reports that from next year anyone who uses the firm's Drive service will need to make sure they remove some of their files as this cloud storage platform is being shut down for good.
The change is coming into force from December 31, 2023, with the retail giant confirming that files kept on Amazon Drive will no longer be available to customers. It said: "We understand that content saved on Amazon Drive is very important to our customers. We will communicate our plan to remove or delete files prior to December 31, 2023, and provide sufficient time for customers to save their files."
Amazon Drive is currently a secure online storage service for photos, videos and files with customers getting 5 GB for free. This can be boosted via monthly fee but not for much longer as all accounts will be closed next year.
