    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

    @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.

    @Outlook , why do you suck so bad at IMAP & POP settings. It shouldn't be this hard to automate Outlook with LLM. Plz fix or I will sell all my @Microsoft shares.

    @Outlook why is it constantly kicking me out of my emails? I have approved over 20 times. Each time it's approved, it then kicks me me out and says to sign in again. I cant access any of my emails!

  • kickthecorrupt
    ktc (@kickthecorrupt) reported

    @MicrosoftHelps sorry to say your @outlook program seems to be compromised. many users are locked out with the message "Too many requests" when, in fact, there have been just one-two logins in a day. not clear what is meant by "requests" issue is not of an individual account but many users

  • foxy3ls
    Foxy3ls (@foxy3ls) reported

    @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!!!

    @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…
