    @Outlook @Microsoft , you ever going to fix the Outlook/Hotmail spam filter? That thing stops NOTHING. I get 100 emails a day. On Google I get maybe 2-3 a month. Your filter has been trash for years. How long is it going to take you to fix it? #opendoorpolicy #spamwelcome

    Hey @Outlook, the app on iOS has been crashing since the latest iOS update, I’ve cleared browser cache, reset iOS settings, reinstalled the app and all sorts of things, but no luck. Known issue?

    @Outlook guys, I pay for Office 365 and ad-free online email - why am I getting so much spam recently? This is something you guys need to fix asap

  • mhtjsh Mohit Joshi (@mhtjsh) reported

    @Outlook is redefining IMAP/POP3 by reducing Gmail users by sending impromptu notification of each and every email and making the recall memory for outlook to use more rather than Gmail! @gmail watchout for this, get the server sync fast or else you'll loose customers. @mhtjsh

  • thurrott Paul Thurrott (@thurrott) reported

    Ads that pretend to be unread emails at the top of your @outlook inbox is a terrible, terrible thing to do to people, @microsoft. Shame on you.

  • John_Dillinga John_Dillinga (@John_Dillinga) reported

    @Outlook guess what guys, it’s time to fix your junk mail filters again. Nothing but spam in my inbox… again!. And while you’re at it. Get rid of the ads on the outlook app because the same junk emails I get are also in the ads with links to phishing sites!.

  • nialloconnorweb Niall O'Connor (@nialloconnorweb) reported from Limerick City and County Council, Munster

    The @eircom.net email down again.. what a shock, when will people learn, bin that email address and get a @gmail or @outlook email address 📧

  • Ryan_LR Ryan Robinson (@Ryan_LR) reported

    This goes along with many years of grumbling that I can't transfer one @Outlook alias to a different account. Basically I currently have 3 Microsoft accounts (2 personal, 1 business) that I really wish I could merge down to 1.

  • Paisano Doriano Paisano Carta (@Paisano) reported

    It’s terrible design by @microsoft for their @Outlook iOS app. If you want to access tasks or notes you can’t do it from the native app. You have to use Microsoft To Do app for tasks and the @apple Notes app for outlook notes Big tech is where quality designers go to die

  • bhopperguy A (@bhopperguy) reported

    @Outlook is there a glitch where accepting an invitation on IPhone doesn’t get to outlook calendar? I am so tired of following up nonresponders who declare they have responded.

  • PGhatak Pinaki Ghatak (@PGhatak) reported

    @thurrott @Outlook @Microsoft The problem is not technology. The problem lies between the chair and the keyboard. Never had ads in outlook in any flavor of outlook.

  • goTHEnellE Melody and Violence (@goTHEnellE) reported

    @Outlook Hi, your filters have stopped working again and putting obvious spam and phishing in my inbox. Even from blocked accounts. Can you find a way to fix this please?

  • Cparker84698105 Cparker (@Cparker84698105) reported

    @Outlook absolutely BLOWS.I am unable to access my email and have ZERO available humans to resolve this issue. I am stuck with the soggy sandwich of online “support”and was nearly scammed by a suggested number that demanded a “fee” to remove my forced 2 step verification.

  • kayhantolga Tolga Kayhan (@kayhantolga) reported

    Hey @Outlook, Please stop showing notification count on the Junk Email folder. People like me prefer to ignore junk emails but all the time there is a badge showing how many junk emails I haven't deleted yet. Terrible distraction.
