Microsoft Azure Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Varun Agrawal (@varagrawal) reportedTrying to setup a basic webapp on @Azure and OMG, so many hidden steps and gotchas which the documentation doesn't address. Every time I think I've figured it out, I need to go back and enable some other service or extension. This is the worst developer experience!
-
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
-
Aditya Jivoji (@adityajivoji) reported@Azure tried to sign-up for a new azure account. wtf is the ‘Press and Hold’ challenge. I tried 23 times and it still does not work. what is wrong with you @Microsoft there is no other way I can prove I am a human? just this one option. wtf??
-
burkovski (@burkovski) reported@Azure , I have a $500 bill and I can't ask for details, there is a request refund button which redirect a white page. There is no email or chat for help. How do you expect me to pay you $500 for this kind of service ?!!
-
ThePunKing (@The_PunKing) reported@Azure making shift-enter run queries is the most dangerous thing in the world. Holy crap! DELETE FROM <enter> students <shift+enter> WHERE <enter> id = 327 Sincerly, Someone who is thankful he is only selecting in this azure interface
-
John Straumann (@JohnStraumann) reportedAccelerate workforce upskilling with AI-powered copilots using Azure AI Search and OpenAI. Cut handle time by 20–30%, boost skills, and improve service. Try a 30-day pilot! @Azure
-
Rahul S R (@Rahulsr01) reported@ghbdigital @Azure Ironically my main subscription tenant was disabled for inactivity and 2 days before i paid the pay as u go bill for the same ...funny how the support url takes u to general chat thread and not to any forms... I had to use my official subscription to trigger support
-
Vishal (@Vishhallu) reportedAnna University’s result server has been down for 16 hours straight Millions of students vs one sad little server. Maybe it’s time for an intervention? @AWSCloudIndia @Azure @digitalocean
-
Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@florianbador @Azure Login requires a phone you don't have. Cancellation requires login. Support tickets require login. Every exit goes through the same locked door.
-
Jon? Jhon? John? Juan? (@DarkLordoftheIT) reportedAnyone having EXO or AAD issues? @Microsoft @Azure @AzureSupport
-
David McCarter (Microsoft MVP) (@realDotNetDave) reportedAzure says my subscription is disabled. Azure billing says I owe nothing. Support says… nothing. I’m a Microsoft MVP, and I’ve spent most of my morning chasing this billing black hole. 🫤 @Azure @AzureSupport @coolcsh #MVPBbuzz
-
sercanov (@sercanov) reported@openclaw I’d ask for Azure Foundry support but even OpenClaw would get lost and confused in @Azure docs…
-
aymiee (@aymieelis) reportedIs anyone successfully using Microsoft Global Secure Access with Windows Authentication to SQL Server on Azure VMs? Getting 'target principal name incorrect' errors despite correct SPNs and port 88 routing. Kerberos tickets fail through GSA tunnel?... @Azure
-
Anže Vodovnik (@Avodovnik) reported@__tosh @Azure I started with trying to fix my old account with the right data, etc., no success. Then tried creating a brand new subscription. And it just fails randomly.
-
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
-
Ganesh Behera (@ghbdigital) reportedDisappointed with @Azure support. Our application has been down for over 16 hours, we have received no proper revert, and the support flow did not even allow us to select the right severity for a business-critical outage. Startups need better than this. #Azure #Microsoft
-
Mohamed (@abusarah_tech) reportedi’ve recently went down a rabbit hole to learn how hyperscalers / cloud providers like @awscloud, @Azure (or at least in theory) work a huge respect to all the engineers that built the abstraction behind the resource provisioning. i am still trying to wrap my head around it
-
humberto (@humbertus1980) reported@azure @MicrosoftHelps Azure front door purge process is now running for more than an hour, and certificate update on front door is taking for now more than 32 minutes.. Any issues on front door?
-
Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported@tmels @Azure No but it reminded me that I do have #EtherAssist from @EfficientEther in the browser and that found the problem - the "invisible" host pool was missing a Workspace. I created the host pool manually (I usually use my PowerShell script) so must've missed that step. Doh! Automation FTW!
-
Jeremy 💻🎮🔭 (@pcnerd37) reportedWTF!!! I have an @Azure App Service Plan that went way past its supposed $69.35/mo plan, blew past my monthly budget and now I'm stuck with an astronomical cloud bill. I can't afford this when I'm unemployed!!! @AzureSupport
-
Victor (@victorpham2212) reportedSo Microsoft Azure platform decided to NOT let me in because it’s so sure that I am a bot. It’s just mind-blowing how terrible Microsoft has gotten, this is probably vibe-coded. @Azure , yall are shameful i aint gonna lie, absolutely ridiculous the kind of user experience yall created
-
Florian Bador (@florianbador) reported@Azure : Remove this insanity of #AuthenticatorApp! I created a new biz account for some emailing, put the debit card, then the login forces to setup that stupid app, but I don't own a smartphone (and won't borrow anyone's). I tried to call support but got disconnected, calling again leads nowhere. At this point I could not even cancel the membership because I cannot login... Madness! Just let the customer decides what they want as 2FA!!! They know better, you control-freaks. So what am I supposed to do at this point? Cannot login, cannot setup auth app, cannot even cancel because cannot login, cannot open a case online because cannot login, and no "Use another way" option to skip this silly Auth-App setup, and no Desktop App either since I run exclusively on Linux.... Why so complicated??? Keep It Simple Stupid. @Microsoft @Outlook
-
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
-
उज्जवल (Ujjwal) (@UjjwalKirt22551) reportedworklog: 1. Fixed the ai slop colleague pushed while migrating blob storage from @azure to @cloudflare r2. 2. Configured the ports on vm to restore the broken dev envs. 3. sat on call with a colleague to help correct the cloudflare dns settings and setup proper database conns.

Gautam (@gautamgoel978) reported@Azure openai is down, not able to use endpoints, I am super frustrated
-
John Straumann (@JohnStraumann) reportedState and local governments can cut response times by 30% using Azure AI Search and OpenAI for chatbots, automating support with secure, monitored solutions. Try a 30-day pilot! @Azure
-
Robert McLaws (@robertmclaws) reported@Azure @shanselman This sounds cool and I’m interested in seeing it. Having said that… AI should never have direct access to the database. There must be at least one intermediate layer that enforces business-level data security through standard APIs + OAuth. Otherwise you are exposing your data to AI vulnerabilities, exploits, and hallucinations.

Vikas Mishra 🇮🇳 (@VikasMi34498235) reported@AzureSupport @Azure @MicrosoftLearn I have been trying to resolve a certification issue for the last 20 days but it is still not resolved.Ticket: 2602180030002690.i did NOT delete my Microsoft Learn profile. I recently left my previous org HCL, and my company email may have been deactivated.

Swezey (@007_Swezey_117) reportedSetting up a new Azure/Entra account/tenant in @Azure @Microsoft shouldn't require a ******' master's in troubleshooting. FML Worst XP ever. Would not recommend. Even with crackers.
-
Alex Crossley (@alexcrossley) reportedPlease, can anyone at @Azure Business Support understand that I can not log into Azure, and so I can not use the portal for support? HELP!
