-
逢坂隆也 Zac (@zach_coredump) reported@MSCloud @Microsoft When could you guys fix this issue? Anyone with email only is able to request login process.
-
Ganesh Behera (@ghbdigital) reported1/ We are in the AI era, yet our Azure issue remains unresolved after days. A live beta application has been impacted, users have been affected, and the response has still been “please allow more time.” That is not the standard businesses expect from @Azure @AzureSupport.
-
Ghost🧭 (@Badbreed95) reportedCan I sue @Safaricom_Care for giving out my number to someone else? Am at risk of losing my data because @MSCloud can not allow me to login to account, that number is registered to the number in question
-
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.
-
qianyi1001 (@yuqianyi1001) reportedFiled an Azure billing support ticket on May 7 regarding unexpected charges. It’s been nearly two weeks with zero response. This is really disappointing for individual developers relying on Azure credits. @AzureSupport @Azure please escalate.
-
The President of Earth ☀️ (@ProftranDotCom) reported@benshapiro @Azure Poor recent Boeing products, poor reliability recent cars and pickup trucks correlate with the adoption of MS @Azure and exponential growth of MSFT. Does this make sense?
-
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
-
FANATICSNo (@wehrmeister007) reported@CallofDutyCM @Activision @Azure Another day where your anti cheat doesn't work and you **** on the community finally do something against these cheaters it's unplayable cod known as cheater game millions company and no real anti cheat people make fun of your anti cheat
-
oesnada (@oesnadaki) reportedThe European Commission is moving to designate @awscloud and @Azure as gatekeepers under the Digital Markets Act, a shift that signals the end of the unregulated era for cloud infrastructure. By forcing these platforms to adopt strict interoperability and data portability standards, the EU aims to dismantle the technical and contractual lock-in that has long defined the enterprise cloud market. This regulatory expansion means $AMZN and Microsoft will likely be forced to overhaul how they bundle services and manage customer transitions to competitors. The upcoming preliminary finding marks a significant escalation in antitrust pressure on $MSFT and the broader cloud sector.
-
Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reportedOne of the vendors we use who hook into @Azure @Microsoft365 are reporting that error 503 is being returned and @Microsoft have confirmed that there is a problem
-
MergenChat (@mergenchat) reported@Azure gpt-image-2 image editing is not working through your api. generating is working fine though.
-
N810 (@nathansaadat) reported@Azure Okay I sent a DM. I would really appreciate your help.

Mani (@manitofighh) reportedHow Azure billed us $25,000 > Be me > run experiments across AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure > script terminates all instances across all cloud providers > Normal charges from AWS and GCP after instances are termianted > 12 days later, get a notification about a $25,000 bill from Azure > Thinking we got hacked > The Azure dashboard makes it IMPOSSIBLE to figure out *what exactly* was incurring charges. Just a bunch of generic cost break-down > Finally figure things out and delete all resources in the resource group that was previously turned off > Somehow, half the instances were off but not "deallocated" and half were both off and deallocated (but the script used the same command for all instance terminations??) > Ask Azure to dispute charges because this makes no sense > Azure closes ticket without a resolution??? > Reopen ticket > Azure: Sorry, we understand, but nothing we can do > ?????????????????????? @Azure @Microsoft this literally rips apart our research funding and limits our future projects. This is the most messed up way to bill off of weird policies like this
-
Conor O'Neill (@conoro) reportedThinking about it, @Azure couldn't have picked a worse time to have a wide scale multi-hour OpenAI outage. Their whole "We're Enterprise" schtick really didn't hold up to scrutiny. And now we have options in Europe with AWS.
-
Chris G (@crypspaz9999) reported@Azure What is wrong with your back end today...AAD keeps timing out, it's breaking all my damn CI/CD pipeline runs. Please fix your ****!
-
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.
-
onion spice latte 🧅 (@AQuickAlias) reportedOur client has been completely locked out of M365 @Azure for two weeks and @AzureSupport is a total joke. The official rec we received from an MS support rep was to just keep opening tickets and pray that someone responds. Case 2605190040004147 if you all actually want to fix it.
-
Cory B🅰️ttles (@CoryBattles) reported@Azure what an awful product for anyone with less than a doctorate to try to use. Days wasted, even with Claude's help. Endless circles of conflicting errors and rabbit holes. Support dead ends. Insanely frustrating. Claude's suggestion...give up, cut your losses, move on.
-
Mile Brzanov (@milebrzanov) reported@Azure Fix your stuff! Defender for Cloud. Also, why we can't create support tickets while paying over 2K USD per month? #enshittification #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.

AZHockeyNut (@AZHockeyNut) reported@yuqianyi1001 @AzureSupport @Azure Impossible i get service on billing issues same day
-
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
-
Galaxy.ai (@galaxyai__) reported@Azure Multilingual support is a massive win, finally I can generate memes in more than one language.
-
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.
-
Tech P (@Tech_p001) reported@Azure "The question isn't where AI should run—it’s how many billions of dollars are being wasted running models on unoptimized, chaotic data estates just to satisfy FOMO. You can't out-build bad data architecture with more compute."
-
Poletto (@Its_Alan_Paul) reported@msft4startups @Azure We need more support
-
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
-
Mark Hughes (@huzi8t9) reportedIt seems @Azure SQL Servers/Databases have connectivity issues. Intermittent in the last few days but nothing on their status page 😭 #azure #sqlserver #connectivity
-
Conor O'Neill (@conoro) reportedOf all the hyperscalers, @AzureSupport's refusal to do timely updates on their status dashboard is absolutely enraging. The last time Azure OpenAI had a problem in late October, MS finally updated the dashboard 3 hours after the outage began! Does @Azure even have a NOC?
-
Renzo Canepa (@rcanepag) reported@Azure Every generation request takes so long that the service is unusable. Even 1024x1024 images can take more than 5 minutes to complete.
