-
JSeds (@jackseds) reported@ANDY29493 @Azure No, they have too much to fix before they can add new features
-
moncd (@moncadad) reportedHey @Azure / @AzureSupport I’m completely blocked from accessing Azure. Error: AADSTS5000225 (tenant blocked due to inactivity) Portal shows: no subscriptions available This looks like a tenant/subscription provisioning issue. Support case already open can this be escalated?
-
MergenChat (@mergenchat) reported@Azure gpt-image-2 image editing is not working through your api. generating is working fine though.
-
Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@ghbdigital @Azure Support flows are designed to filter urgency out. The severity selector protects their SLA metrics, not your uptime.
-
Technophile (@Technop54777070) reportedA few months ago I attempted to create a RAG index using aisearch in @Azure that pulled it’s knowledge from PDFs in sharepoint libraries. It was a miserable experience tweaking a Logix app flow to ocr, merge, split and chunk the PDFs that i eventually gave up. I attempted it again yesterday because I saw they now allow me to do all of the above by just building out some JSON configs and a skill set. It was easier, ran faster, and didn’t run into the same errors/limitations that I ran into in Logix apps. Kudos to @Microsoft
-
Vu (@soulsocketXBT) reported@Azure u ***** have built the most retarded / confusing platform ever. holy ******* ****. in order for me to deploy a ******* python script i need to go thru millions of pointless actions. i thought its hard to beat GCP but turns out u retards are in another league
-
Adib X (@AdCoinMy) reported@Azure @AzureSupport Startup credits expired while I was unwell for 3 months. Submitted extension request, no response yet. 4 live AI products at risk. Sub ID: fd50fc63-265f-4b35-a7b3-4ae535d954f5. Please help. i cannot open any ticket tried #AzureStartups #MicrosoftForStartup
-
Conor O'Neill (@conoro) reportedOf all the hyperscalers, @AzureSupport's refusal to do timely updates on their status dashboard is absolutely enraging. The last time Azure OpenAI had a problem in late October, MS finally updated the dashboard 3 hours after the outage began! Does @Azure even have a NOC?
-
N810 (@nathansaadat) reported@Microsoft @Azure i’ve been trying to get a dynamics 365 business central license for six weeks now. None of your “providers” will contact me. Please help me. I don’t understand why it’s so hard for a small business to use your product.
-
Chris ✈️🇧🇷🇵🇹🇺🇸🌍 (@crismsantos) reported@guyrleech @Azure That's why I have different brose profiles for each service I need to use frequently (avoids 100% this issue if used correctly) For accounts not used do frequently I do access using the incognito mode
-
Jon Olson (@jonolson_) reported@Azure "This specific error actually isn't an Azure Batch configuration problem or a permissions issue—it is a hardware architecture mismatch." (oops this was my fault for building a docker image on Mac m4 and targeting x86)
-
Neon Cosmo (@VowOfJudgment) reported@Azure The latest official Edge build can't synchronize Profiles with old MS Accounts like @live.com.ar We've had these accounts for around 20 years, and spent a lot of money on MS Store purchases. If #Microsoft does not fix this it's plain theft.
-
Brad Gessler (@bradgessler) reportedA big reason is because you can’t sign up for half of the hyperscalers. Today I tried to open an @Azure account today & the anti-bot mechanism was broken. I then tried @googlecloud & adding an address to billing was broken. They just don’t care anymore. 🤷
-
Paleheart (@zgf2022) reported@Azure Azure sucks
-
Robot Person (Misogynousos Oreo) (@RobotPerson78) reported@Azure Your products are terrible
-
Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reportedOne of the vendors we use who hook into @Azure @Microsoft365 are reporting that error 503 is being returned and @Microsoft have confirmed that there is a problem
-
Vishal (@Vishhallu) reportedAnna University’s result server has been down for 16 hours straight Millions of students vs one sad little server. Maybe it’s time for an intervention? @AWSCloudIndia @Azure @digitalocean
-
MsftTechNews (@MsftTechNews) reported@JayCee83519 @MSCloud @MSFTReactor Apologies for the confusion. Seems like the issue has been resolved.

Damian Figiel (@DamianCTO) reported@Azure just lost its most valuable competitive edge. @OpenAI officially ended its cloud exclusivity with Microsoft. Their models can now be deployed on any cloud provider, and AWS CEO @ajassy already confirmed GPT models are coming to Bedrock "in the coming weeks." This was always going to happen. You can't build a $150B AI company and let one vendor own your distribution channel forever. The 2019 Azure exclusivity deal made sense when OpenAI needed survival compute. In 2026, it was just dead weight. The real lesson is that single-cloud dependencies in AI were always a bad bet. Model access, GPU availability, data sovereignty, you want optionality in all three. Anyone who locked their AI stack to Azure assuming exclusivity would last is doing some uncomfortable math right now. Is your AI stack still locked to one cloud or are you already spreading the risk?

Brad Gessler (@bradgessler) reported@cpinto @Azure @googlecloud Unbelievable. I bet it's still broken 6 months from now.
-
Mouhab Tarek (@MouhabTarek) reportedFirst attempt: 2014. Graduation project. An @Xbox @kinect + @Azure remote rehab system — inspired by patients in Cairo who couldn’t reach physio clinics through the traffic. Microsoft noticed. Then my career took over. But the I never let go the idea.
-
Aaron ⚡️ (@TheEcomNomad) reported@Azure i think the multimodal piece is where this gets interesting. most enterprise models still treat vision as an afterthought, but bundling it with reasoning means you're building agents that see full context from the start, not bolting capabilities on later.
-
FreedomForAll (@Ima_Not_You) reported@DrNTXNews @Azure WTF are you doing?!!
-
Jesse Wursten (@JesseWursten) reportedStill think it's an incredible business model when @Azure keeps giving me a 8vCPU CPU even when I select (and pay for) one with 32 or 48, but to get any support on this bug I need to pay THEM?
-
Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reportedStart VM on Connect not working from the native Windows App today but has previously. @Azure permissions set properly. Start same desktop as same user via the web client on same machine & the VM starts. No error in Windows App, just stops showing "Connecting" (and never shows Starting).🙁
-
Jason Fleagle (@jjfleagle) reported@Azure Evaluation to enforcement is the right loop. Agent trust is not a one-time test; it needs repeated policy checks, runtime controls, and evidence that the fix actually changed behavior before the agent gets more scope.
-
Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@Rahulsr01 @ghbdigital @Azure Payment processed. Access denied. Support deflects. Three separate systems, zero coordination.
-
Patrick Detlefsen (@patrickdet) reportedMicrosoft @Azure support plans are next level. You pay them for the privilege of being ignored. < 8hrs SLA, no answer for 4 days.
-
Rahul S R (@Rahulsr01) reported@ghbdigital @Azure Ironically my main subscription tenant was disabled for inactivity and 2 days before i paid the pay as u go bill for the same ...funny how the support url takes u to general chat thread and not to any forms... I had to use my official subscription to trigger support
-
Siva Prasad (@Sivapr_Vz) reportedHey @Azure @MicrosoftIndia — I was charged ₹1,700 for a 'NetworkWatcherRG' that was AUTO-CREATED by Azure in UAE North during my learning practice. I never intentionally deployed it. Already deleted it. Kindly look into Invoice #G157606830 and process a refund. #MicrosoftAzure
