@MicrosoftHelps @Outlook @Microsoft it looks like outlook or exchange is down or very slow. I called my email provider and it looks like there are server issues on Microsoft ‘s end.

@AnneMcGarryMars @Outlook It’s concerning how easily customer accounts can get locked for trivial reasons. If you’re facing this issue, consider seeking assistance from a trusted professional Ben_cybersecurity on instagram he’s specializes in account recovery

@Outlook Can't open or sign into my Hotmail account on my laptop but it's weird because it just keeps going to the home page over and over again when clicking the "sign in" box! What's going on??? Extremely frustrated!

@Outlook The issue STILL isn't resolved! And all I'm getting from your end is the same copy-paste response over and over.

Microsoft need to do something about hackers. Nowadays I cant even sign in to a new device because "you've sued an incorrect account or password too many times" when its just technology and hackers... @Outlook

@Outlook how can a company your size not have any way of contacting you directly when I have a major problem with my email account? Absolutely outrageous

@Outlook I need help. I don't understand why when I try to log in to my accounts and Xbox I get this message: "Error: Please retry with a different device, use a VPN, or other authentication method to sign in."

Hey @Microsoft @Outlook, your mobile app is trash. Can't handle emails over 5MB? It's 2025, not dial-up days. Time to fix your broken mess. Embarrassing.

In the @Outlook app, contacting support for your broken app. Says average wait time in chat is 21 minutes. Been waiting 2 and a half hours so far. Great support. Did you guys forget you offer support through chat?

@Outlook Hi, so I’ve been logged out of my Outlook account, it’s asked me to reset my password but when I do from my phone it doesn’t let me. How can I fix this? I sorta need to get into my emails.

@Outlook If you don't have the ability to retrieve this email address and don't want to trouble yourself, please, help me write him off, because I know that you have not had a good impression of China and will not help me solve the problem

@Outlook If you don't have time to look, just reply to me politely, I hope you don't reply no, don't give me hope and don't solve the problem, I sent it to you through dm, you don't respond, even if you reply 1 is better than no reply

@Outlook Obviously you have a disastrous glitch in Microsoft 365 basic. Since signing up I have nothing but tons of junk mail every day in inbox and despite changing my settings to contacts only, contact messages in junk mail! WTH?

Anyone else has issues with Hotmail? Introduced a new storage limit without warning. Received no emails all day, now I’ve paid for the upgrade told I won’t get the mail I’ve missed over the last 24hrs. Terrible service from @Outlook

It's unfortunate that @Outlook has the game so locked down because the old Outlook AND the new version are the worst apps in literal desktop existence. Apparently even without Gates signing off on every Windows decision the company is still run like **** #theydontcareaboutus

Today is a struggle with all the techno things. @Outlook has made it impossible for me to access my own emails and the lack of support offered to resolve the issue is ridiculous. #MercuryRetrograde

This post is a periodic expression of hatred and contempt for @Outlook, perhaps the worst of @Microsoft's many terrible products. @UVA makes it difficult for faculty and staff to escape its use, our Kafkaesque punishment for crimes that we've neither committed nor contemplated.
