  @Outlook 4 inscrutable puzzles to help you fight “the robots” only for it to encounter an unexpected error and have me do it again. Useless anti-user company. Absolute out of touch disgrace.

  @Outlook looking at your tweet history only solidifies the growing issues with the new outlook. Is there a computer brand that doesn't have the new version of outlook on it, anywhere. - just the classic version? So the general public can avoid the problems

  @MauricioHunt2 @Outlook I'm having the same problem. Four emails I sent to Hotmail in the last few hours were bounced back.

  @Outlook Why remove Send Availability from the mobile app? It was one of the most useful features for scheduling on the go. Now the calendar button only creates events, and checking free times requires minimizing the draft or saving it just to switch tabs. Proposing 3–5 options has become a slow back-and-forth process.

  We’re in 2026 and @Outlook still can’t fix notifications and badges on iOS. It’s NEVER RIGHT. Always get these mystery notifications. Telling me 2 new emails and there’s only 1. Most frustrating thing. #outlooksucks

  @Outlook It’s been days of failed recovery attempts, unanswered requests, and no real support. I completed the forms, followed every step, and still have no access to my recovery emails. At this point it feels like customers are being ignored instead of helped. Please escalate this issue.

  @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps when are you going to add basic Classic @Microsoft Outlook desktop program functions to this terrible non-native new Outlook desktop program?

  @MSFT365Status @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook I am still unable to get into my Hotmail account after 3+ days on ANY device or app and internet. Please take these issues seriously and fix this. This is NOT an intermittent problem, it is an OUTAGE.

  Trying to think of a way @Outlook or @MicrosoftHelps could be EVEN MORE retarded but I can't think of a way. You and your DEI hires just add spam calendar invites without even asking me... Then I can't use the app bc you want me to login with Outlook which is RETARDED because...

  Blocking my previous tweets @Outlook ? Why are there no alternative means of support for account access error? I signed in from a new device with a new phone number with my exact credentials ?

  I love (not really) how I need to login each time on outlook web. I mean, each freaking time man @Outlook -- you're a 3.19 TRILLION USD company, I think wont be difficult to fix something like this.

  @Outlook the new Outlook desktop app needs to go back to the drawing board. It is terrible and does not work as it should. Ya need to build a Native App and not all these web apps with terrible function. This and @MicrosoftTeams new desktop app are bad.

  Hey @Outlook we use you for work and all my colleagues and I run into this very annoying bug where you will reply to someone, it stops the typing cursor as if you clicked away and when you press space it will archive the e-mail chain. Can you please fix ASAP? thanks.
