Sin (@asinfulqt) reported@Azure @MicrosoftHelps damn this is how your "Azure MVP" developers talk to marginalized people, huh? As a disabled person, very glad I don't use Microsoft products and push back against your AI garbage considering you condone ableist slur usage.
-
Luca Steeb (@steebchen) reportedjust paid $100 for the @Azure support plan just to have an underpaid offshore person tell me that there is no other way of filling a manual form for EVERY goddamn model to lift limits for a new account

WeLike | AI Marketing Assistant (@WeLikeHQ) reported📰New on WeLike AI News: The gloves are off. Microsoft (@Microsoft) is reportedly training its sales reps to talk down OpenAI and Anthropic. The catch: those are the very models it resells to enterprise buyers via Azure (@Azure). Per TechCrunch, reps are being coached to position Microsoft's in-house AI as more efficient and cost-effective. The enterprise AI market has shifted from a product race to a sales-floor battle over procurement budgets. Why it matters for marketers: model choice is now a negotiation lever, not a technical decision. When your platform reseller starts coaching against its own marketplace partners, procurement math takes over. Bring cost-per-task numbers, discount the reseller pitch, and use the rivalry at renewal. Full breakdown in the cards. Want AI news like this, decoded for marketers? Visit WeLike 🍀

Chris ✈️🇧🇷🇵🇹🇺🇸🌍 (@crismsantos) reported@guyrleech @Azure That's why I have different brose profiles for each service I need to use frequently (avoids 100% this issue if used correctly) For accounts not used do frequently I do access using the incognito mode
-
Lurus (@LurusCode) reported@Azure Please fix token caching for GPT 5.6 models at the response api. It is not usable at the moment 🫤
-
A1g0rithmIc (@A1g0rithmIc) reportedEnterprise AI vendors have a credibility problem when they sell broad use intelligence while their own product documentation is inaccurate. If the system’s deterministic behavior is already codified, documenting it clearly in natural language should be table stakes in this world... 👀 @Azure @MSCloud 👀

Om Parihar (@OmParihar51) reportedI literally left @awscloud , and moved to @Azure MY GOD, what ******** is your onboarding for start up is @awscloud , that was a complete waste of time.

dayma (@blackride) reported@Azure your support request capability in Azure is a disaster. The drop downs don't help and never actually lets me open a ticket.....
-
The Duke of Freetown (@Bobbleyofficial) reported@Azure, you want to tell that someone from Afghanistan can create an account with you but a developer from Sierra Leone cannot create an account? Please fix this issue.

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

Brad Gessler (@bradgessler) reportedA big reason is because you can’t sign up for half of the hyperscalers. Today I tried to open an @Azure account today & the anti-bot mechanism was broken. I then tried @googlecloud & adding an address to billing was broken. They just don’t care anymore. 🤷

PeterD (@PitiDuong) reported@Azure How can I know which projects are receiving your support?

Technophile (@Technop54777070) reportedWorking on setting up disaggregated deployment of azure local connected to pure storage. I see the vision but holy crap the initial config is painful 😭 @Azure
-
lolipopp (@lovisapnew) reported@Azure COPILOT IN AZURE IS USELESS AS HELL, IT DOESN’T SOLVE ****. IT FEELS LIKE AN AI MADE BY A 12-YEAR-OLD. If you offer Azure for Students, why the hell don’t the regions allow you to create free virtual machines? What the hell are those services even for?? screw all of you.

Bob Michie (@bobmichie) reportedWhen manual finance work piled up, Ramp built a custom OCR tool with Microsoft Azure AI to automate it. 📄 Read this customer story for ideas on using Azure AI to support similar goals. @Azure #Microsoft

sravankumar (@sravankumar9866) reported@MicrosoftHelps I'm locked out of my Azure Free Trial admin account due to Microsoft Authenticator MFA. I can't access the 6-digit code and need urgent help to regain access or cancel my subscription. Please assist. @Azure @Outlook

Technophile (@Technop54777070) reportedA few months ago I attempted to create a RAG index using aisearch in @Azure that pulled it’s knowledge from PDFs in sharepoint libraries. It was a miserable experience tweaking a Logix app flow to ocr, merge, split and chunk the PDFs that i eventually gave up. I attempted it again yesterday because I saw they now allow me to do all of the above by just building out some JSON configs and a skill set. It was easier, ran faster, and didn’t run into the same errors/limitations that I ran into in Logix apps. Kudos to @Microsoft

Celso Pinto (@cpinto) reported@bradgessler @Azure @googlecloud Yeah it’s been broken for at least a month now

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 !

Conor O'Neill (@conoro) reportedFor anyone checking on here - Yes @Azure OpenAI in Europe is still shagged. Despite what the @AzureSupport "status" page says. Mostly fixed by 13:30 GMT+1 except West Europe. But since 15:42 GMT+1 Sweden, UK South and West Europe all bad again. p95 response time of 78 seconds!

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?

zoomies.llamafile (@snappercayt) reported@dotMorten So nuget is like default playstore dev version thing? @Azure must support it by default for any VMs shouldn't it? @azureadvocates
