    I see @Microsoft @Outlook must have had another issue/breakdown in spam filters as their service becomes completely unusable for me AGAIN! Multiple copies of emails getting through. As you scan every email how can you not detect spam contents that match deluges of reports to you?

    @Outlook signing into Outlook and being told I have signed in too many times after putting in my CORRECT password. Then you are forced to change password. FIX IT UP MICROSOFT.

    @Outlook My case involves MAILBOX CORRUPTION, not deletion. I need this escalated to the engineering team. Only they can restore internal server snapshots. The attack happened yesterday — there is still time.

    @Outlook I am having a technical issue with my personal account. It is being incorrectly flagged as a child account. When I try to verify my age by clicking 'I am a parent', I immediately get a 'Logout Failed' error page on all devices and browsers.

    Hey @Outlook wtf is up with your tech support. I call because my email was hacked and the hacker was locking me out of other accounts and buying nearly $2k of Walmart gift cards. When I reached out for help your tech heard my problem then hung up. Now no one at tech won’t call because the one that flaked on me when I needed him most flagged my phone number (the one that’s been on file for years)
