Bank space should be infinite or at least significantly higher than 480. The micromanagement required at the moment is annoying and I am at times, forced to deconstruct or delete items that I would otherwise have liked to have kept.
Also, a text search box on the bank and personal inventory should be an intrinsic part of the game, not requiring an addon.
The interface in this game really could do with some tender loving care to make the game look contemporary and not like something from 1995.

So 2,680 slots (excluding unlimited slots for materials) isn't enough for you? Really?
(That's 11 characters with a potential 200 slots each plus 480 bank slots as per your figures, although isn't the current personal max 220 slots?)
Have you considered rolling 3 mules?
Yes, lets put some duct tape on the problem.

Any addition to this will detract people subscribing because craftbag is the only real reason to sub. Anything that takes away from this wont be introduced.
It took, ~3 years for bank space to be doubled even though ZOS added quite a few new items/sets to the game. Also items are purposely kept un-stackable for this reason also, to force more people to sub.
I'd be fine with them adding more storage bonuses to ESO+ subs. I bet it would help them sell more.
There is Zero reason to do this based on, most daily players sub already for the craft bag. Increasing the rewards gained from the craftbag wont attract more.
Non stackable items and Bound sets that cannot be banked are the main cause of my inventory hassle. ZOS keep adding more sets to the game and items yet ignore storage space, this isn't by chance but engineered so. Way back people said i was stupid for keeping infused vMA staffs and armours that weren't BIS. Glad i kept them but the hassle of doing so was marginal.
It might. I don't see a reason why offering housing storage based on size of your house for subscribers. I agree with you that most of my problems come from gear I am saving so I don't have to farm it again. I would like to put that in my house in a container. Would be a good benefit for ESO+ in my opinion.
Let me be clear - Adding storage to housing in no way benefits ZOS as less people would subscribe. The only real daily perk of subscribing is the craft bag. That is the sole reason why such a simple addition to ESO has not be made.
I run 14 characters, bag space maxed out. I own my own private guild bank of 500 spaces. Store Treasure Maps and other non bankable non stackable items in mail (40 mails constantly). I know all about the hassle of inventory micromanagement.

That's a 22% increase in slots - some duct tape!

Why i should everytime decide which set i should throw in a trash?
This micromanagement makes me pissed off. I cant relax playing this game. I cant collect everything i loot. I should switch my characters and remember where i hold a piece of set.
Stop it. ZOS. Make houses what they should be.
Not quite because it's a good thing that a game like ESO offers variety. There are way more sets around than we can store. If you pick them up to give them a fair try sometime later instead of just using what everyone uses, you need a fairly big inventory. Experimenting with sets out-of-the-box can be fun and a driving motivation in this game of its own for some. It could also make sense to hold on a set which is so-so at the moment but may become better in an upcoming patch eventually. Things like that happened. So it's unjust to blame the players for the way they want to play.if you have maxed out all spaces from alt. toons to your bank space I would say you are holding on to too much stuff and need to let some of it go because it's just sitting there for nothing because you are being a pack rat and that is not ESO's fault.

Its not a solution if you have 14 characters and you'd actually like to play them all. The mule concept is garbage. They're releasing different sets all the time. They're changing rules all the time. As an aside, 'all the time' is hyperbole for at least every 3 months. Throw on top of this pvp gear needed if you prefer to pvp. Throw on top of this gear sets you hold onto because you recognize that all it takes is one minor flip of the switch and the gear goes from utter crap to stellar in a heartbeat. Do I want to have to re grind for that gear when I know that likely in 3-6 months its going to be awesome again? Forget about it. Inventory management is annoying. I've got 14 characters all 180-200 slots. I've got more than one guild bank at my disposal. I've got maxed out bank and subscribed. I've got many houses I dump extra furnishings in. I'm still not happy with inventory space. I suppose if I wanted to just have garbage characters purely for storage purposes the suggestion works.
There's one more problem with inventory. Guild banks are ridiculous. You can literally store 1 item per player in a guild in a maxed out guild. How does that make any sense? Why shouldn't guilds be able to expand their storage to suit the size of their player base? The fact that accessing and deposing in a guild bank is a total nightmare shouldn't be lost on you either. I'm tired of sitting there jamming 'e', 'e' 'E' 'E!!!' and feeling like I've got some Samuel L. Jackson expletive problems after a few minutes of dealing with the guild bank.
Next there is Stores. I would love to have a personal store I could set up at my house. I'm sure a lot of people would. Why not convert Dune into the proper Bazaar that it was meant to be and get ten to fifteen guild stores in there. How about sell expansion slots so people can offer more items on a guild store. There are so many quality of life things they could do regarding inventory, I really don't understand how anyone could say 'Nope, its perfect, continue to do nothing about it.'

It's even more of an issue if you play all the roles the game has to offer (tank, healer, damage dealer). And on top it's not just sufficient to pickup a set. You may want the very same set with different traits for different situations like divines in PVE, impen in PVP.
It's good that we have this variety. But we are limited in the way we can make use of it, because the storage system is too limited and just utterly clumsy.

Why do you keep everything. You shouldn't be able to just hoard every item in the game. Keep the items that belong to each character on the respective character, bank the extras (there is so much bank space), and sell the rest.
Never had any issues with inventory.

You know, ZoS could do something nice that doesn't benefit them out of a sign of goodwill to the customer. We do nice, unexpected, things for customers all the time at my place of business. Adding another benefit, like housing storage, to Eso+ would be a nice gesture.
Furthermore, you are literally arguing against making all of our lives easier. You said yourself that you struggle with this issue. Arguing against more storage is masochism.
