  Microsoft @Outlook is beyond broken. I accidentally wrote a wrong email ID (external) which failed to deliver. Now, I am trying to send it to the correct id, but outlook keeps "correcting" me to the wrong one. No intuitive way to bypass this. This has to be a joke or something.

  @Outlook For2 I have been locked out of my emails, despite filling out forms many times over. I filled in all the details you asked for many times. I do NOT have a number you can text me on because I am using a different sim on vacation. So just fix it. This is terrible service

  @Outlook have had my Hotmail for like 20 years and now I can’t get in. I hate the world we live in where I can’t just talk to someone and solve the problem. Literally everything is useless for support. Companies don’t care to help you anymore.
