  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 I'm trying to sign into my email. It keeps telling me to enter a second email address to "protect my account". I only have one email. I don't want a second email. I'm old fashioned, I just want to sign in using my password, and access my emails.

  @Outlook why in the blue **** do you make it so god damn hard to attach files to emails? It’s ****** text I shouldn’t have to compress that **** down and split it into multiple files, just tell me what is the point, using your clunky dog **** email system makes my job harder

  @Outlook @Microsoft I reported fraud to you 4 days ago. And have still have ZERO response. my details are STILL compromised due to your lack of urgency with such a sensitive issue. Everything else was sorted in hours by various other companies. Shocking.

  @Outlook the new Outlook desktop app needs to go back to the drawing board. It is terrible and does not work as it should. Ya need to build a Native App and not all these web apps with terrible function. This and @MicrosoftTeams new desktop app are bad.

  We’re in 2026 and @Outlook still can’t fix notifications and badges on iOS. It’s NEVER RIGHT. Always get these mystery notifications. Telling me 2 new emails and there’s only 1. Most frustrating thing. #outlooksucks

  @Outlook Fix it. It’s getting stupid now. At least give communication you are aware and looking into the issue?

• 
  Bonynea (@Bonynea) reported 39 minutes ago

  @Outlook It’s been days of failed recovery attempts, unanswered requests, and no real support. I completed the forms, followed every step, and still have no access to my recovery emails. At this point it feels like customers are being ignored instead of helped. Please escalate this issue.

  @Outlook this update that sends everything to my Draft folders automatically is complete BS Please change this! It doesn’t save any time and causes way too many problems. The majority of people using outlook for work Multi task and end up having all these emails disappear. When it’s out of site it’s out of mind. That’s not a good thing.

  Inner Phoenix (@InnerPhoenix420) reported 60 minutes ago

  @Outlook @Outlook has become complete trash, letting unverified emails to email people, 100% are scammers or hackers, and @Microsoft like per usual is trash letting this happen. STILL AN ISSUE, STILL NOT FIXED, PATHETIC.
