@Outlook @BillGates From overzealous spam filters, to the need for an authenticator app, to terrible UI, what a trash product. Probably great for IT guys that bill hourly and fix things that shouldn't break.

@Outlook Hi, so I’ve been logged out of my Outlook account, it’s asked me to reset my password but when I do from my phone it doesn’t let me. How can I fix this? I sorta need to get into my emails.

@Outlook I am disappointed. I selected Outlook because of history. I am using Office 365. I can't backup. I can't download. There is no way to select multiple emails. All this and I pay for this monthly! Is there a third party solution? Oh yes and too many versions to find a fix?

Outlook 365 is such a joke. The sheer hours wasted by IT professionals dealing with @Outlook issues on a daily basis must be off the charts.

@Outlook If you don't have time to look, just reply to me politely, I hope you don't reply no, don't give me hope and don't solve the problem, I sent it to you through dm, you don't respond, even if you reply 1 is better than no reply

Anyone else has issues with Hotmail? Introduced a new storage limit without warning. Received no emails all day, now I’ve paid for the upgrade told I won’t get the mail I’ve missed over the last 24hrs. Terrible service from @Outlook

Hey @Microsoft @Outlook, your mobile app is trash. Can't handle emails over 5MB? It's 2025, not dial-up days. Time to fix your broken mess. Embarrassing.

In the @Outlook app, contacting support for your broken app. Says average wait time in chat is 21 minutes. Been waiting 2 and a half hours so far. Great support. Did you guys forget you offer support through chat?

@Microsoft @Outlook You want me... a home-bound disabled senior that doesn't own a smart phone and only has a PC with a long broken camera feature - to sign into my Hotmail with a smart phone pointed at my face? C'mon people.

@AnneMcGarryMars @Outlook It’s concerning how easily customer accounts can get locked for trivial reasons. If you’re facing this issue, consider seeking assistance from a trusted professional Ben_cybersecurity on instagram he’s specializes in account recovery

@Outlook Obviously you have a disastrous glitch in Microsoft 365 basic. Since signing up I have nothing but tons of junk mail every day in inbox and despite changing my settings to contacts only, contact messages in junk mail! WTH?
