  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

  My bank account (Isbank) is officially linked to this compromised email address. I am ready to submit legal/banking documentation. This is not just an account issue, this is an active financial cybercrime in progress! @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook

  @Outlook So while my email password issue continues with the account you all took over, I decided to log into my substack which uses an email I made specifically for social media use. Guess what? That password didn't work either. Strange?

  Oops! Just realized that @Outlook doesn’t give you an option to choose a time zone for scheduled messages. What a bummer. @Microsoft please fix or add this option. 🚀

  @TBanton18 @Microsoft @Outlook I had the same problem a while ago, absolutely impossible to speak to a human at Microsoft to get support, finally I switched to Gmail, caused a lot of disruption because my old Hotmail is used to verify loads of passwords, annoyingly I keep getting reminders to log into Hotmail

  @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps @Microsoft - Will I ever be able to access my Hotmail email via the Mail app on my iPhone again? Been down for days now. Keeps saying I’ve tried to sign in too many times with an incorrect account which is total lies. My password is 100% correct

  @Microsoft cannot make @Outlook find emails in one's inbox. So much of time is being wasted everyday because Outlook doesn't work. Could someone explain to me why anyone should trust their AI models? If they are so good why don't you use it to fix the email??

  My live/microsoft userid/email is in some leaked hack db and now I keep getting these Authenticator requests every few hours by someone trying to access my account. @Microsoft @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps is there a way to geofence my account and lock all access attempts from other countries. This can’t be just a problem unique to me
