@Outlook I help manage my elderly dad's outlook account but the spam that gets through to his inbox feels like harassment at this point! I have to block/ report numerous junk mails EVERY HOUR, but it's getting ridiculous and taking up hours of my day. When will you fix this?

@Outlook @Haskoli_Islands University keeps asking me to hand over my password in order to solve for my @Outlook email and day planner. Is there an issue with your product or at University server policy administration? This an inordinate annoyance. Please respond with quick fix :)

@jng5 @Outlook Definitely submit feedback for everything you run into. I'm shocked how responsive many of the teams are. I had a dev troubleshoot an edge issue on my machine for hours because I gave him access (external users were having the same issue).

@Outlook So I had a subscription for several years when I needed help with the ONGOING issues that Windows has, but today when calling, support has stopped? One might understand if the software didn’t have a plethora of issues, but for a business user, how do I get help? @Windows

@Outlook I’m in deep trouble over a mistake YOU guys made. I tried to send an email to someone important and sent it to an automatic contact your network saved it as. Now that I went back and looked, it never went through. What if I’m kicked out of my house because of you????

@Outlook @MissKDukes I have the same problem and have tried these steps and your automated response says its not enough information for recovery. I would love help from a real person so my mother in law can access her computer - linked to her account. It's near impossible to talk 2 a real person!

@Outlook Hello. It's been since 3rd of this month. I've not been able to access my account. My phone has a hard reset and can't login because it's linked to the MS authenticator and won't send me mobile OTP verification... That account links to everything with my life.

@suoicilatsgnaG @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps Yes same issue. Tried to reach out to microsoft for help but they couldn't solve it. They use support in India, someone working there works with a scam center and was bombarded with spam & hack attempts. I am reducing use on that email and switching to another provider. 🙄

Wow, spam message after spam message in my email inbox; probably 30-50 since yesterday, but yet, @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook say it’s user issue. No, it’s not. Just read the other mentions people are reporting with the SAME issue. It’s on your end - fix it.

@aksfjh @Outlook I can see that. Chat has an immediacy to it which would be a challenge. The real problem (IMO) is that we continue to use these communication channels in the wrong way. Email is not chat and vice-versa
