  @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

  @awstar11 @Microsoft @Outlook Because deep down they know no one should use any of their products and they're subconsciously trying to drive users away? Best I got. If you figure it out let me know, been wondering this for decades.

  @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??

  @Microsoft @Outlook just causes problems whenever I open it. I've been trying to read e-mail today and, so far, Chrome has crashed six times. This has not allowed much e-mail to be read. I'm probably going to change my public e-mail address this weekend.

  Tariq Ponir (@hyperactve) reported 36 minutes ago

  Microsoft @Outlook is beyond broken. I accidentally wrote a wrong email ID (external) which failed to deliver. Now, I am trying to send it to the correct id, but outlook keeps "correcting" me to the wrong one. No intuitive way to bypass this. This has to be a joke or something.

  When you can implement input focus in 2 steps out of 3 in the login form, what's the reason to not implement in the OTP section too @Outlook?

  @microsoft & @Outlook my Discord was hacked during their data breach, my Outlook, Microsoft and Xbox account were all hacked through this as well. I've tried to recover my accounts but your recovery system is ******* atrocious. Never had these problems until Windows 11

  @lovemesomeALLI @Microsoft @Outlook Try the following. Login using any mobile number linked to email. Instead of email address. With current password.

  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 How is your app so terrible and preventing junk/phishing emails going into peoples main inbox? Useless and the worst at it. You must be making something from it.

  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.
