    @Outlook Usa Microsoft Ai Xiaobing uses satellite waves to torture others around the world. So far, no one knows who did it. This is a very serious problem. You should treat it carefully and deal with it as soon as possible. (Search for Electronic harassment)(This is not a joke)

  • HannahF2394 Hannah (@HannahF2394) reported

    @Outlook hello. I’m having trouble recovering my account. I’ve filled in the form online but it’s rejecting the attempt. How can I contact someone to discuss this further?

  • Kavehpd Kavehpd (@Kavehpd) reported

    @implausibleblog @Outlook @sophiejfhall I swear this is going to be something like the British Airways outage in 2017. Somebody flicked a switched somewhere and opened the floodgates. Spamgates?

  • VeblenTweets thorestien veb-levi (@VeblenTweets) reported

    This is probably something no one cares about, but the monopoly on email by @Outlook and @gmail is an issue. I am a paying client of both companies but also host a mail server. Outlook and Gmail have completely gimped their products for any independent IT. Email is dead…

  • iAmLilSteve SmittyWarben 🏁 (@iAmLilSteve) reported

    @Outlook y’all need to fix this problem. Haven’t received a email since Friday smh

  • Luke_Hatley Luke Hatley (@Luke_Hatley) reported

  • P_de_B Peter de B⭕️er (@P_de_B) reported

    @Outlook it has been two and a half week since more than a thousand of our users cannot start Outlook for Android (crashes om startup). It all started after an update. Tried all kinds of (premier) support, but no solution. Is this problem being solved by development already?

  • implausibleblog Farrukh (@implausibleblog) reported

    @Outlook @ReissOmari Same problem as Gorde, why do you allow so much junk mail to filter through?

  • jamestroup James Troup (@jamestroup) reported

    When you go from @Outlook not connecting to server to getting help from @Office and not being able to use any products because they messed up my @Windows Awesome times.

  • PattyZiecheck Patricia Ziecheck (@PattyZiecheck) reported

    @outlook For months the email block feature has been missing. Even though I report phishing the same things keep turning up as well as new junk. Every day over 50 spams in my inbox and over 100 in my junk folder. If you can't fix this I am leaving Outlook.

    @Outlook Is the service down? I keep getting a blank page or 503 error.

  • Dafne175 Dafne17 🇦🇺🇮🇹 (@Dafne175) reported

    I'll sound like a broken record but we need reaction emojis to emails @Outlook please. I want them to know I agree with their emails/ thanking them without having to send an email myself (and flooding their inbox). I want people to feel acknowledged for the work they do, always

  • RPG_volley RPG_Volley (Turbo Dude, Better Than an Alpha Male) (@RPG_volley) reported

    Forget "High Importance" and "Low Importance" settings for emails, @Outlook. I need people to be able to select: - You're in trouble - You're not in trouble - I'm mad at you - I'm not mad at you - (I'm secretly mad at you) when they email me.

  • iamkilotango I am Katie (@iamkilotango) reported

    @Outlook @anitaelmore6 Free version of outlook for me. Fix it please
