I'm very frustated by @gmail. We had a hacked account which was quickly fixed. Since one month poor domain reputation. GMail has no support, help or contact option to fix the issue. SPF, DKIM, DMARC everything set up and tested. Even Microsoft @Outlook does it better!

@Outlook is the biggest piece of ****, no customer service number or email, no live chat and they don’t respond to the password reset form email after a month of attempts. All I need to do is clear out my cache but I can’t thanks to how terrible their service is.

@MicrosoftHelps @Outlook Hi, I’ve received an email telling me my OneDrive will be de-activated if I don’t sign in soon. How can I tell if this is a genuine email before I click on any links in it?

@Outlook push notifications have completed stopped working on the iOS 15 mail app, been like this for weeks/maybe months. Managed to get push notifications directly from the Outlook app but it's a workaround rather than a fix. Any news?

@Outlook Fix your junk mail blockers on outlook urgently please. The amount of junk mail and scam emails getting through lately again is nothing short of staggering. It's the worst of all email providers. I get 10 junk emails everyday without fail. Not good enough whatsoever Microsoft!

@Outlook Could you perhaps advise why I’m not getting the e-mail response in the 24 hours stated to my other e-Mail address? Why is that process not working? Submitted all the information and then nothing? It’s a bit 💩

@Outlook could a human help me please? I have been going round in circles trying to unblock my e-Mail account - I have sausage fingers and typed my password incorrectly. Your virtual help won’t help me unless I can sign in, and I’m not getting a response from the reset process🤪

@Outlook Appalled by the non existent help from you guys. I have an issue accessing my outlook email and after completing the online form and contacting you via Facebook I have been left with no help and told your service agents can’t help. Poor service.

@Outlook you really gotta make verification slightly easier, I tried all night to login to my account and I can’t because the alt email I set up is no longer in use. Very frustrating.

@AdamFowler_IT @MaxSanna @Outlook #Viva's advice is just surfacing an old Outlook feature but it's badly named because it doesn't delay delivery (i.e. hold it on the mail server). It delays send (holds it in the sending mail client)

@Outlook Nice of you to mention (NOT) that you changed the outgoing server name. Took me HOURS of effing around to FIGURE THAT OUT.
