@Outlook just read through your tweets and replies. 100’s if not 1000’s of people all messaging the same issue and your response is to ask us to DM? It’s clearly a wider issue. Just get it sorted.

@Outlook You must realise your spam filters are down. An acknowledgment would be good eg ‘Dear Customer, We are aware there is an issue with our spam filters. We are working hard to resolve this. Meanwhile please accept our apologies.’ Permission to copy & paste #spam #outlook

@Outlook can you sort your problem with the junk filtering? Literally every single email is going into my normal inbox including loads of spam - the same for my husbands account and what looks like everybody else on here. 🤯

@Outlook my inbox settings are to only allow emails from my contacts yet my inbox is flooded with spam today - are you going to address this issue that many seem to be having?

@Outlook if you're getting many complaints about the spam filter not working on the Android App it's because Google have changed the spam filter on the Calender App and it's affecting Outlook. Advise people to uninstall the updates to Calender and that seems to solve the problem.

@Outlook I think your spam filter is broken. I’ve started getting a lot of spam into my inbox and it’s been getting progressively worse over the last 3 weeks. Currently getting around 10 spam emails an hour since this morning.

@spfarrelltweets @Outlook The problem is that we can keep working blocking these emails, and 300 new ones will pop by tomorrow. FIX IT, @Outlook!

@Dr_Dreps @Microsoft @Outlook This it may be a technical issue. They will resolve it hopefully. But its a US holiday so that may mean a slower resolution time than normal

@Outlook @MicrosoftHelps just read through your tweets and replies. 100’s if not 1000’s of people all messaging the same issue and your response is to ask us to DM? It’s clearly a wider issue. Your spam filters aren’t blocking a single email. Please sort it!

@Outlook you need to FIX email, EVERYTHING going to Inbox, and Junk Mail is empty. Notifications are off the charts. Support is no help, they do not come online and you sit there buffering for hours

Will you acknowledge there is an issue with your spam and junk filters any time soon @Outlook ? How many people may potentially be compromised whilst you bury your head in the sand? #Outlook #SPAM #junkmail
