A couple of weeks ago when Microsoft officially relaunched SkyDrive as OneDrive, the company also debuted a special offer that allowed users who configured automatic camera backup options to work with the service to receive an additional of 3GB of storage space.

However, many users didn’t receive the extra space due to what seemed to be a bug affecting OneDrive globally, but it turns out that Redmond has managed to determine the cause of the issue and repair it so that all users could receive the extra space.

“Due to an error on our part, it took longer than expected for some of you to see the extra 3 GB in your OneDrive account. For that, we sincerely apologize. We pride ourselves on providing you, our best customers, with a seamless and dependable service,” Microsoft said in a statement submitted to Microsoft News.

“We’re sorry for any stress and frustration that our mistake may have caused, and we’ve worked hard to make sure that if you’re backing up your camera roll to OneDrive, you’ve now received your extra 3 GB of storage.”

OneDrive comes by default with 7 GB of storage space, so the extra 3 GB clearly come in handy, especially for users who are planning to store all their camera photos in the cloud.
