  • twistedfiction4 Patrice Woodbine, Mayor-Bishop of Chucalissa (@twistedfiction4) reported

    So I forgot my @Outlook password and they are putting me through the ringer to get access to my account again but I need to gain access like immediately. I need to talk to a person, not just contact support. How do we fix this?

    @K_Sheridantweet @Outlook You're lucky you can get into yours, mine just won't even load up now, it's broken :(

  • ankurb Ankur Banerjee 🆔 (@ankurb) reported

    Here's the kicker: since a lot of companies use @Outlook as the email service, it would be trivially easy for @Microsoft to allow people to confirm their work email address and issue a portable, digital credential that proves employment history.

  • ScottM77AC Isles 77 (@ScottM77AC) reported from McKee City, New Jersey

    @Outlook I'm receiving an error message that says I can't send emails because my one drive storage is full. Deleted a ton of stuff and now 5 gigs under my storage capacity, also emptied out my outlook folders and still getting the message that I can't send emails. Please help.

    Trying to recover my @Outlook account but always receiving back an email (on my Gmail) telling not to have enough information even though I gave all the requested details. @Outlook can you please help me solve this issue from an human assistant? It's urgent! Thank you!

  • jonnyfromrhu Jonathan (@jonnyfromrhu) reported

    @AD3Trains @Outlook It makes no sense. I've deleted 15 years worth of emails and hundreds and hundreds of photos over the past few days. It's dropped to 4Gb memory used several time, then randomly within an hour it's back up to 5GB used. I think @Outlook is broken 🙄

  • elbee81 Lois 💙 NHS Procurement (@elbee81) reported

    @Outlook Ever since the issues a month or so ago where spam/junk was getting into inboxes, the amount of junk mail I’m receiving has increased enormously. 175 junk mails in a day!? Please may you help?

    @Outlook hello, having major trouble with my account not letting me send emails saying storage is full when it is not. One drive appears to be full but I have only used 9gb of my 15 gb storage allowance. I’m aware you have changed things but it’s now a mess, please advise

  • Neil_Riley #Scamdemic 💙 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 😞 (@Neil_Riley) reported

    Hi @Outlook Why is viewing my inbox via google chrome/PC absolutely hammering my CPU? Usage spikes massively, unless I view any other folder, then my usage/fans ramp down. #Outlook #MicrosoftOutlook

  • basam_ars mohammed basam (@basam_ars) reported

    @BruceLe00520877 @Outlook I have this same issue

  • AaronMelloPhoto Aaron (@AaronMelloPhoto) reported

    Anyone else have their @Outlook emails just disappearing when you login?

  • ukheather Heather (@ukheather) reported

    So I @MicrosoftHelps & @MicrosoftDevANZ replied saying to use FH (sigh) but said I could DM so I did. They replied saying use FH again (why ask me to dm I don't know) Then @Outlook DM me telling me how to remove a city from the app! They didn't read the issue/skim read.. 5/

    @Outlook The android sync calendars toggle keeps turning off randomly every now and then. Please fix it.

  • Phobosknight Phobos (@Phobosknight) reported

    @discord compromised email address, that kept spamming their support while I was also writing in from the same email address telling them that the account was compromised, they are utterly unwilling to speak to me about the issue to even prove my identity. I am hoping that @Outlook's(2/?)
