    The new @Outlook is terrible. Shaky. Too many glitches and not as fluid. Let me revert back to the old one. If I can't even access my taskbar while dragging a document how can I drag and drop?

    @Microsoft @Outlook the upgrades had been truly disgusting. I am wasting minutes to find how to attach files or change font to bold. Please do not fix something if it's not broken and revert back to the functional outlook as soon as possible!!!

    Is anybody else having problems with @Office 365 and @Outlook this morning? I had to find an alternate way to log into email because all my app icons disppeared from the 365 home page despite being paid up on everything and when I did get in to my email it took forever to load.

  • TheMaxxDigital Drew Davis (@TheMaxxDigital) reported

    @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook is still down. Both the desktop app and browser aren’t loading. When will a fix be implemented? I can’t do my job until this issue is resolved.

    @outlook @Office365 When do you intend to fix the problem over sending ics calendar invites? This non-feature has caused my organisation real problems.

    @collarxelbowWWE @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook Use the app vs the web version, I’m dealing with the same issues

  • collarxelbowWWE Kerry (@collarxelbowWWE) reported from Crater Village, Hawaii

    Hooray, I guess I get the day off since my outlook email isn’t working and @MicrosoftHelps & @Outlook are 100% clueless as to what’s going on and can’t resolve the issue.
