-
Jesse Wursten (@JesseWursten) reportedStill think it's an incredible business model when @Azure keeps giving me a 8vCPU CPU even when I select (and pay for) one with 32 or 48, but to get any support on this bug I need to pay THEM?
-
dog dude (@replyAnonymouse) reported@Azure @Azure @nmoneypenny tweet says “is available” blog post says “generally available soon”. I realize I’m impatient, but this is bad comms for our customers. Pls fix.
-
JSeds (@jackseds) reported@ANDY29493 @Azure No, they have too much to fix before they can add new features
-
sprintfPython (@sprintfPython) reported@Azure its been 3 years of ai and you cant even make yourself a cloud ai mcp and @satyanadella keeps talking about ai slop everywhere, first do your work then you can slop to others, i stuck with your azure errors from 24 hrs **** vibe coding BS
-
Harry (@hsmahon) reportedDay 0 support for Qwen on @Microsoft @Azure Foundry local. s/o to that team whoever you are.
-
Jon Olson (@jonolson_) reported@Azure "I completely validate your frustration. That specific Azure Support portal bug—where the "Request Details" blade just silently deletes everything you typed when you hit save—is a notoriously infuriating UI glitch. It is the exact kind of friction that makes people rage-quit"
-
Mecha-Pango (@mechapango) reported@genspark_ai @Microsoft @Azure Excel gets AI to fix formulas nobody understood in the first place. Redemptive arc.
-
Varun Arora (@flashindesi) reported@Azure With a Sev A case, it’s been 24 hours since the handoff, and I haven’t received any tickets or communication from anyone. Even reaching out to previous engineers didn’t yield any responses. It’s disheartening to experience such poor service from Microsoft..
-
ScholarHat (@ScholarHatX) reported@Azure Great initiative for businesses that want practical AI adoption without unnecessary complexity. Clear guidance and real world implementation steps can help more companies confidently start their AI journey with Azure.
-
Jon Olson (@jonolson_) reported@Azure "Clicking through the Azure Portal to manually create a Job and a Task is incredibly tedious and completely defeats the purpose of using a massive, scalable compute service like Azure Batch." -Gemini 3 Pro
-
Mouhab Tarek (@MouhabTarek) reportedFirst attempt: 2014. Graduation project. An @Xbox @kinect + @Azure remote rehab system — inspired by patients in Cairo who couldn’t reach physio clinics through the traffic. Microsoft noticed. Then my career took over. But the I never let go the idea.
-
Kodeus (@TheKodeusLabs) reported@NVIDIADC @Azure Infra is scaling fast to bring agents into production, but infrastructure alone doesn’t solve the core problem running agents is one thing, trusting their execution is another.
-
StopForumSpam (@StopForumSpam) reported@livingdevops the @azure firewall is a rip off, an absolute piss take of a service offering. if you dont want their fancy UI then a VM self hosted firewall does the trick for $5 a month
-
Ganesh Behera (@ghbdigital) reported@Azure @AzureSupport Thanks, but this issue has already caused prolonged downtime and serious business impact. We need urgent manual review, not just a redirect. Please have @AzureSupport review our case immediately and help with reactivation or data recovery. I can share the support case no by DM.
-
Jackartoons (@jackartoons) reportedSo disappointing to see @AWSstartups and its lack of support to startups unlike @Azure @AzureSupport who are helpful and accessible.
-
Aaron ⚡️ (@TheEcomNomad) reported@Azure i think the multimodal piece is where this gets interesting. most enterprise models still treat vision as an afterthought, but bundling it with reasoning means you're building agents that see full context from the start, not bolting capabilities on later.
-
bhanu (@Bhanu2716) reported@AzureSupport @Azure Is Azure front door have any technical issues ? We are facing not reachable issue in west Europe region
-
Donnie (@towndrunk) reportedHad to contact support to transfer my @Azure grant. Support was super responsive! But now it won't let me apply the sponsor credits to my billing profile. Lol I'm trying to build @Copilot support agents for staff at the homeless shelter I work at. Pls fix.
-
Patrick Detlefsen (@patrickdet) reportedMicrosoft @Azure support plans are next level. You pay them for the privilege of being ignored. < 8hrs SLA, no answer for 4 days.

misshelenamy (@misshelenn1) reported@DalpraJuan @Azure @AzureSupport Mine was resolved with his support ZackLegion here on X
-
Siva Prasad (@Sivapr_Vz) reportedHey @Azure @MicrosoftIndia — I was charged ₹1,700 for a 'NetworkWatcherRG' that was AUTO-CREATED by Azure in UAE North during my learning practice. I never intentionally deployed it. Already deleted it. Kindly look into Invoice #G157606830 and process a refund. #MicrosoftAzure

SeenThroughaLens (@LensSeen) reported@Azure Nobody in your terrible support what to help when an issues is outside of the norm. I owe you money but you are preventing me from paying you !

Damian Figiel (@DamianCTO) reported@Azure just lost its most valuable competitive edge. @OpenAI officially ended its cloud exclusivity with Microsoft. Their models can now be deployed on any cloud provider, and AWS CEO @ajassy already confirmed GPT models are coming to Bedrock "in the coming weeks." This was always going to happen. You can't build a $150B AI company and let one vendor own your distribution channel forever. The 2019 Azure exclusivity deal made sense when OpenAI needed survival compute. In 2026, it was just dead weight. The real lesson is that single-cloud dependencies in AI were always a bad bet. Model access, GPU availability, data sovereignty, you want optionality in all three. Anyone who locked their AI stack to Azure assuming exclusivity would last is doing some uncomfortable math right now. Is your AI stack still locked to one cloud or are you already spreading the risk?

N810 (@nathansaadat) reported@Microsoft @Azure I have been trying to get a 365 business license for 6 weeks now and none of your “partners” care to help a small business. I have called no less than 10 times now. I don’t understand why we have to beg TO PAY YOU. Please help! We need it to connect our Azure/BI
