    @MicrosoftIndia @Office pls fix the problem of outlook crashes many times, I tried with your team case no.1040281036, 1040127264 but not resolve permanently, its routine in every 4-5 days crash problem. @Outlook

  • GordonScottHay Scott Hay (@GordonScottHay) reported

    For nearly a month @Office365 has failed to solve a sync issue with @Outlook that causes email moves to be undone (including deletions). @MicrosoftHelps should be embarrassed by the "efforts" of their engineer as. Possibly the worst customer support we've ever had.

  • Htbaa Christiaan Kras (@Htbaa) reported

    @Outlook If only Outlook would actually return relevant results. I can search for a name and I get tons of results where my search term isn’t actually included in. The search feature is horrible and can’t stand how slow Outlook is.

  • filou13700 Filou (@filou13700) reported

    @Outlook COULD YOU FIX THE @GMAIL CRASH?

  • CamilleElHage Camille El Hage (@CamilleElHage) reported

    Forced to move from #Thunderbird to #Outlook for work one month ago and HATING Outlook ! No Unified Inbox in 2022 ? Are you serious ? Everything feels so slow now... #Thunderbird I miss you :( @Outlook @mozthunderbird @ThunderbirdFr

  • iluvcuddlesocae cae / maybe moving out (@iluvcuddlesocae) reported

    @Outlook why is it that when I use the desktop version at home, it doesn't work, but I never have a problem at my work environment - where I currently don't work so don't have access to?

  • NwandoWoman Nwando Ofokansi (@NwandoWoman) reported

    Do the people who make @Outlook use Outlook? Do they know how terrible it is?

  • DWolfRVA Dan (@DWolfRVA) reported

    Hey @Outlook why on earth don’t your iOS notifications group together? It’s a basic expectation to not have to swipe away 22 separate notifications after getting out of a meeting. The only other option is to clear all notifications, but that impacts other apps too. Fix it!

  • lostinthegc Sergio (@lostinthegc) reported

    @katekiewel I got a good @outlook.com email address when it first launched, but the spam blocking is so terrible these days. Utterly useless.

  • SamerA29669657 Samer A. (@SamerA29669657) reported

    Not sure if it is me or if there is a problem with @Outlook #Windows ? More than 3 days and I can't log in to check my email!!!

  • The_Writings_Of Jessica Dionne (@The_Writings_Of) reported

    Honestly, **** @Outlook never had so many issues trying to send a goddamn email, or find an email, or attach something in my life. Get your **** together @Microsoft

  • RedCellsrus RED CELLS R US ❣ (@RedCellsrus) reported

    Is there a problem with office 365 on the desktop? @Office365 @Outlook

  • carlprekopp carl prekopp (@carlprekopp) reported

    @LadyofShalott80 @Outlook I know! Something pressed a key on my keyboard and triggered a complete shut down of all messages dating back to 2008

  • vaaluin Vaaluin (@vaaluin) reported

    @Outlook Keep getting the "Something Went Wrong" when trying to load up Hotmail/Outlook through my browser. Been trying to figure out if it's me or not. Seeing alot of other people with issues today too. What's going on?

  • rocker_stock StockRocker (@rocker_stock) reported

    Massive problem with the @Outlook app…example, you have two accounts and receive an email on acc A. You hit reply and for some strange reason it think you want to send the reply from account B! What is that!!

  • carashields3 CS3 1987 (@carashields3) reported

    @Outlook I was asked to re-log in and now outlook keeps logging me out and asking for security code! I have my password correct. Is there an error with the system. I can no longer send / receive emails.

  • GordonScottHay Scott Hay (@GordonScottHay) reported

    @Outlook Currently we have an engineer still refusing to acknowledge the sync issue, and supervisors that refuse to re-assign the case despite numerous requests.

  • EklaSarkar Eklavya (@EklaSarkar) reported

    @Outlook Is Outlook server down or something ? KCL one not working

  • hoanvu85 Hoan Vu Luong Tran (@hoanvu85) reported

    @AskPippa @Outlook The best person to help solve issue like this is @Jago_help on Instagram he help me fix mine successfully after a long wait

  • RedCellsrus RED CELLS R US ❣ (@RedCellsrus) reported

    @williamoulton @Office365 @Outlook Thank you, we're not sure what the issue is, but can't get it to work/logon. Team, sharepoint and other applications seem to work, all except outlook and or just logging into office 365 ?

  • labcybetcvnt jae (@labcybetcvnt) reported

    @AskPippa @Outlook Had similar issue go and message Jago_help on Instagram for help that help me sort mine after a long wait

  • TheMadnessMind ✨🌈MMChibi🌈✨ (@TheMadnessMind) reported

    Hey @Outlook maybe fix the issue where your program will not stop making notification sounds no matter if your computer is on mute or if you've turned off all notifications sounds. I work in a big office where people need to be quite and focus and this makes you un-useable

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported

    @Outlook I keep getting a 'Something Went Wrong' message whenever I try to use my Outlook account. I can't open or send emails. Others are reporting the same issue. Any chance of an update as to what's going on?

  • Rayj0031 Rayj00 (@Rayj0031) reported

    @Outlook My Outlook stopped working for several gmail accounts I have. Any idea why? The error code is: 0x800CCC0E

  • ashtag529 ash leigh (@ashtag529) reported

    One day after @Microsoft shuts down #InternetExplorer we get UNDO SEND for @Outlook. This is a trade I would've made years ago. Huzzah!

  • RackEmApp RackEmApp.com (@RackEmApp) reported

    Tonight we've solved a long running issue with email delivery. If you've ever had an issue sending invites/emails to @live.co.uk, @outlook.com or @hotmail.com then you'll be pleased to know they will now work (but you will need to resend them)

  • bicakci_mustafa Mustafa Bıçakcı (@bicakci_mustafa) reported

    @Outlook When will you stop sending private e-mails sent to others to me, even though I have no interest? Isn't that a sufficient data privacy problem?

  • AskPippa Ask Pippa (@AskPippa) reported

    @Outlook I can't get my gmail emails from my desktop Outlook anymore. It stopped with Google saying Outlook 2016 is not secure. There don't seem to be any fixes for non-mobile devices, & I'm not buying a new Office at this point. Considering switching to Thunderbird, unless there's a fix.

  • wellhat Jacob (@wellhat) reported

    This is not only bad for Teams, but it's particularly bad for it and @Outlook. Not everyone works for one organization under one account. And many organizations I've worked for use painfully annoying 2FA login processes for both!

  • DFS_9 DFSGuy (@DFS_9) reported

    @reinvention @Outlook Terrible. They can have ads in other ways.
