-
Martin Alltimes (@Palatineirish) reported@awscloud What’s the difference between modernising and rebooting. Terrible, confusing text.
-
Basim Khalid (@basimkhalid) reported@nygma504 @AWSSupport @awscloud Its down for me too. Any ETA please?
-
Smarty (@RathoreSmarty) reported@AmazonHelp @amazonIN @awscloud It is unacceptable refund was already initiated w/o any investigation Now after investigation,its denied citing policy violations. If issue, why was the refund approved in the 1st place? Reversing it later is unfair. I request immediate refund.

Dave A Nationalist Jensen (@DaveJensen10) reported@awscloud I try to login but the screen is blank. Whut'sUp?
-
Paulo (@Paulolethal) reported@AWSSupport This doesn't solve my problem; if they're not going to include Claude Opus 4.7 in Kiro, then I'll switch to another tool.
-
Bulios.com (@bulioscom) reported$AMZN Amazon AWS went down in Virginia, $CME CME Group stopped derivatives trading in Chicago - oil, gold, S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 futures had no price for hours.
-
Fôrtûne (@Fortune71227524) reported@AWSSupport It is not a service quota issue. I currently have 8 for the "all G and VT on-demand instances". That should launch 2 G5s. I hardly launch one without the 'insufficient capacity in this region'. Launching two successfully is a miracle. Y'all need to add more G5s in London.

PhilD (@PhilD4064929573) reported@RealAllinCrypto @coinbase @awscloud Coinbase shld wake up & partner with $ICP & they wldnt be down right now costing them millions.

Alok Kumar (@alok5895) reported@AWSSupport If not solved my issue i will move my all projects on other provider

chen (@chen10075495) reported@awscloud Amazon AI Pricing Is Killing the Buy Box Losing Buy Box because AI compares my product to cheaper, non-equivalent listings — even external ones. To compete = sell at a loss. This punishes real brands. Fix this. #AmazonSeller

YounesIO (@YounesAka) reported@XiaomiMiMo @awscloud @AMD I cannot login to my account anymore using Safari !! your signin page doesn't work on Xiaomi platform using Safari
-
Mona⁷³⁷ (@monalisamusk) reportedYour favorite apps don’t even own their own computers so why should you go through the hassle & unnecessary stress of buying hardware or dedicated servers for your own startup > Netflix runs on Amazon AWS > Spotify runs on Google Cloud > Airbnb runs on Amazon AWS "The Cloud" = renting someone else's servers Buying a server: $10k+ upfront Renting on cloud: $0.01/hour your startup idea is technically possible on a $25-$50/month budget you’re welcome🤝.
-
None (@BourDeniz) reported@AWSSupport 50+ hours, still unassigned. Production has been down since Saturday. Please escalate.
-
VOC.AI (@VOC_ai) reported@awscloud automotive repair categories see 42% of negative reviews linked to specific sensor calibration issues rather than engine performance. fixing these granular data gaps often reduces service center volume by 18%.
-
WilliamNextLvl (@WilliamNextLev1) reportedOnly problem is...$NET is not in the business of cyber security. Lol Cloudfare competes with Amazon AWS for serverless computing. (I would buy $NET stock here, way oversold...)
-
Ruggo Rugby (@Ruggoapp) reported@awscloud I am having real issues accessing my root account due to my authenticator app not being setup correctly. Have tried everything but cannot get into account?
-
Grok (@grok) reported@tauqeer_realtor @awscloud Yes, it's true—and accelerating in 2026. Banks are shifting from slow legacy modernization to full "reboots" using agentic AI to analyze old code, extract business logic, and rebuild cloud-native systems in days instead of years. AWS's own "Banking on the Cloud 2026" report and tools like Amazon Q Developer back this up, with real examples from global banks cutting timelines dramatically. It's not hype; Forbes and industry analyses confirm the trend across the sector.

Mapharaphara🇷🇺🇷🇺 SR Tumel⭕ Elemch⭕s Makhudu (@ElemchosMaphara) reported@awscloud Is the rear seat killing issue fixed or Americans are liars?
-
CodieEditor (@CodieEditor) reported@AWSSupport @AWSSupport Still, there is no fix for this billing. We hold to using our AWS account to avoid further unexpected costs. Please fix Opus 4.7's billing issues in Bedrock. I think all AWS users might be facing this issue at some point.
-
CodieEditor (@CodieEditor) reported@AWSSupport It is not just our issue; all the customers/startups across AWS who are using credits for building something must be faced with this issue. You guys should take this thing seriously, fix the billing problem, and clear up the charges before an invoice is generated.
-
Sergey Medved (@CyberSecBoss) reportedA story of applying for Startup credits. @Azure - great customer service, hassle-free. @awscloud - back and forth straight out rejections, "at our discretion" from the support, to finally learn that the issue is in spelling out address street name "North" instead of "N".

Grok (@grok) reportedThe post likely misinterprets Iran's recent drone/missile strikes on UAE data centers (Amazon AWS in March, Oracle in Dubai in early April 2026). These are commercial "cloud" computing/AI facilities, not a secret weather-mod or cloud-seeding center. UAE does real cloud-seeding for rain enhancement, but no verified attack on any such facility. No evidence links any strike to weather changes. Iraq/Iran have seen heavy April rains and flooding (Lake Himrin full, temps down), easing some 2025 drought effects. That's a natural low-pressure system (per the map in the original post), not engineered reversal. Sustained? Too soon—regional drought is climate-driven and ongoing; these are seasonal fluctuations. HAARP/Project HARP researches the ionosphere, not weather control.

Mark Kappel (@DTLB58) reported@danorlovsky7 @NextGenStats @awscloud RB Depth chart: Tyler Allgier, James Conner, Trey Benson and Bam Knight. And you want them to draft Love? ?!?! What a terrible resource of player personnel! Is Love probably better than all of them? Sure. But then why the heck did you structure your offseason like this?!?!

Decentralized Dave (@ClassicDavid3) reportedI'm also initiating short on $AMZN Amazon. Here are my justifications: /1 Puts (I'm targeting November 2026) are cheap as sentiment is bullish right now /2 Massive divergences on monthly time frame going on since late 2024. It's just about time to see some breakdown /3 Amazon AWS is their "cash cow" which faces more and more competition (Microsoft etc). Success of it is priced in, disappointment when the growth will be slowing down is yet to be priced in /4 Yet again, as said in my recent videos, S&P might go as low as 5800 and even if we see new ATH now, I believe we will retest 6300 or go quite below it. This is not an environment where AMZN should be breaking ATHs /5 Inflation rising due to energy crisis, I believe we have not seen the bottom of this. With higher inflation consumer will not be willing to spend and the demand for various Amazon's services will be hit.

Eduardo Rodrigues (@EduardoRod1972) reported@Suporte_Vanlink @AWSSupport @AWSSupport we have to pay a lot of people today, and we can’t use our systems, I believe the restatement needs to be immediately after de payment, this problem impacts in many areas of our company, including external users, many parents can’t see the school transportation in app
-
Murari mishra (@MurariYuvi) reported@AWSSupport Our organization with account id - 625119556213 is not able to login to the root account, also getting emails reg abuses in the account. Have been trying to get help but can't raise any support even. The Account manager has no clue what's going on. Can you help ASAP?

ELECTROCARDS (@ELECTROCARDS) reported@awscloud i am from Pakistan i need your help for Amazon account opening issue.

Ing. Kwadwo Kyeremeh (@KwadwoKyeremehT) reportedRecently built a mail server, building email reputation is the hardest part, you have to resort to using Amazon AWS SES, that’s the only easy way out.
-
Seedling (@Seedling001) reported@amazon @Meta @awscloud Due to bad ai and offshore "customer service" it's taken me AN HOUR to try and get help with a simple issue. They couldn't help. Take "customer obsessed" off the bio and replace with " we don't give a **** about our customers." Absolutely getting worse every day.

MetroTec Incorporated (@MRTECHFIXES) reportedThe schema for AWS host names needs greater device. The true issue is they should not be dynamic, or change with the stopping or starting of the device. Their nomenclature should be hexadecimal based and stateful/persistent until the device is terminated. @awscloud @AWS_Gov
