@Outlook the change from Hotmail to outlook has made it IMPOSSIBLE for customers to recover their accounts! How are we supposed to know the latest email and subject we sent? That is ridiculous! Use of a recovery email or phone number should be an option! TERRIBLE PLANNING!!!

@theronster @Outlook @Microsoft Totally correct. I agree with you on what your saying. The problem is as soon as something goes wrong there's nothing but a thousand four and posts and no physical person to help.

@terrymynott @Outlook @Microsoft I completely agree that the Multi Factor Authentication technical hill is a bit too steep sometimes. Let me guess: you changed your phone since you set up the Authenticator app, and now the codes don’t come through? They never warn anyone that this is an issue…

Still locked out of my @Outlook account. I’ve done everything, but it doesn’t even let me attempt the full reset. I believe this is a system-side issue, not user error. @MicrosoftHelps this needs escalation. This has gone on far too long. #Microsoft #MicrosoftSupport

@Outlook what’s the issue with Hotmail accounts. The constant ‘too many requests’ even after 20 hours of loggin in. Need support, which is helpful and not more confusing

@Outlook consistently getting "too many requests" and failing to log into hotmail account EVEN THOUGH there are no such "too many requests" Outlook simply ignores such issues and blames the user who has to try different solutions without success.

(@jennrhcp) reported
@Outlook your authenticator to reset my password is completely useless and never works. I am now unable to access my email I have had for about 25 years because I keep getting error messages. Your online chat tells me to be patient and try again in 24hrs, or 5 days.

@Microsoft @Outlook My hotmail account is suddenly not sending PDFs saying that they have been rejected because they are spam even though I’ve had no problem before sending the same ones. This is happening no matter who I send it to. Is there a problem at your end? Thanks.
