  @satyanadella maybe you can put it to work and fix deploying to @Azure from @github 🧠

  Brad Gessler (@bradgessler) reported 11 minutes ago

  @Microsoft @Azure The only thing worse is when you get stuck into their ticketing system, also known as hell. I once was running a project where nothing got fixed because the people working on our case kept leaving to go to other companies and they never replied. Absolutely insanity.

  @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.

  @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.

  It seems @Azure SQL Servers/Databases have connectivity issues. Intermittent in the last few days but nothing on their status page 😭

  A 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".

  @Azure fix your outage please so I can play smite

  @Azure Fix your stuff! Defender for Cloud. Also, why we can't create support tickets while paying over 2K USD per month? #enshittification #microsoft

  @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.

  @guyrleech @GoogleWorkspace After messing with my entra UPN, I can no longer use entra to log into servers. What’s the bet I can use Google to log into them now? Sort this **** out @azure

  Still 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?

  @AzureSupport @Azure We joined for startup support, but unexpected charges we thought Azure credits covered put us at risk of suspension. We’re unable to pay now and request a review of these charges plus an extension or relief. We value long-term partnership. #Azure #Startups

  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 33 minutes ago

  @AdamGell @Azure I should think so - I don't use CMtrace sorry but anything that makes getting information about a problematic environment is important. I wrote a script for AppSense support to gather as much relevant information as we could in one go to stop toing and froing with customers just to get basic info

  @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

  Jeremy 💻🎮🔭 (@pcnerd37) reported 35 minutes ago

  WTF!!! 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

  @debug_mode @Microsoft @Azure I work in metadata layer but what's the issue in that?

  @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??

  AI experiments are one thing. Running them at scale is another. Check out how Wrtn uses @Azure OpenAI Service and the new o1 model:

  @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."

  Working 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

  Alex Crossley (@alexcrossley) reported 50 minutes ago

  Please, 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!

  A 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

  just 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

  A 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. 🤷

  @Azure is borderline nightmare trying to set up a batch job with simple docker image. OpenAI and Claude Opus both on max effort could not accurately help me. Gemini 3 worked well but here is the list of funny responses from Gemini: <thread>

• 
  Conor O'Neill (@conoro) reported 58 minutes ago

  Of 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?

  concerning that a critical production issue impacting our clients has been open with Microsoft Power Pages support for over 2 weeks without meaningful response or escalation. We are heavily invested in the Microsoft ecosystem and need accountability and timely support @MSCloud

  Filed 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.
