Outlook spam issue has been out of control for the last week. This is the 2nd instance of their spam blocker failing to do anything in the last 4 months. Time to move accounts. @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps

@outlook hotmail email service going down. Suddenly storage limits are introduced. There is no way to delete only attachments. Merely downloading attachments does not free up space. Entire email has to be deleted, leaving nothing for the record. @MicrosoftHelps not bothered?

Today I deleted 12,000 emails so my @Outlook (ex-Hotmail) account could function under the new 5GB 'free' storage limit. Had this account a 𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 long time with next to no issues. Tempted to migrate elsewhere now.

@zacbowden I remember you tweeting about the spam filtering of @Outlook.com not working. My hotmail address (tied to the same account) has been getting at least 4 phishing emails delivered straight to my inbox. Good thing it's the old email address, but the filter doesnt work...

Hey @Outlook I can't send emails any more, because my account is apparently not verified, even if I verified multiple times in the past. Even the link to verify is broken and it doesn't work! HELP

I opened @Outlook and everything was rearranged. I hate it, but it’s going to stay like that now because I don’t have the patience to figure out how to fix it. You’re trying to do too much, Outlook. Just be email and a calendar.

@Outlook thanks for making your search function so **** that it now looks like I've made mistakes at work because I can't find any ******* emails relating to it. They have to exist so where ******** are they and why don't they show up when I search for them. Fix it.

@canadagraphs @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps From what I've read, until the space problem is not solved they won't let you send or receive emails. Very ***** tactic to get more people into paying. Gmail still has 15 GB (includes Drive). I suppose there are tools to migrate.
