Trying to open another hotmail account for my profession rather than using my personal one.

It only gives my live.co.uk or hotmail.co.uk. Is it not possible to have a hotmail.com anymore? Anyone know how I can get a .com from hotmail?

.com is used for American addresses. Unless you can fool it into thinking you're in America, by cunning use of a proxy server that allows scripts etc OR get someone IN america to sign up for you, you're stumped.

I had the same issue when I tried to get another @gmail.com address instead of the gayhat @googlemail.co.uk, but I can't remember what proxy server I used.

answered your own question there fella, you used to be able to have .com, but then when they started using the .co.uk suffix they must have seen no reason for us uk'ers to have a .com. makes sense really,

myprxy.com is amurrrcan i think, try that

As said, you need to find one that allows scripts.

Will hotmail not look a bit pony for a prefessional one? Even gmail looks better than hotmail imo.
