Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • BhereFabs Fabiana (@BhereFabs) reported

    @Outlook Need a call with a tech ASAP! No support available by phone. Online support does not solve any problems!!!

  • thetoitoi Antoine (@thetoitoi) reported

    @Outlook No problem, I can use English. I have a problem with the "block" option. I spend my time blocking the same scam email addresses and I still get emails from them.

  • MunaElMasriya بميه فضة ياكوشةِ البابور (@MunaElMasriya) reported

    How many times should I say this e mail from this sender from this IP is NOT junk before @Outlook believe me? Why cannot @Microsoft fix this problem? Enough that I have to put up with @office awful colours!

  • evcon even (@evcon) reported

    @righteous_jen @Outlook @Microsoft extremely widespread issue and i cannot believe that it's been allowed to go on like this for like a whole *** year

  • LE_Green Eli Green (@LE_Green) reported

    @Outlook This goes beyond the obvious issue that has existed for... as long as Hotmail and Outlook have been around? Outlook SUCKS at filtering junk, spam, and scam emails. I truly don't understand how @Microsoft hasn't managed to at least catch up to Gmail of, say... 5 years ago!

  • ACali_G AGC (@ACali_G) reported

    @Microsoft @Office @Outlook latest Outlook for Mac update made things more difficult. Not being able to open two emails at same time and drag & drop attachments is terrible. Adds 30 mins-1hr extra file path none sense to my day. Please tell me this is some random error

  • khoranak90 jamie plummer (@khoranak90) reported

    @Outlook I’ve send you a private msg and no one has replied yet there’s loads of replies to people on here, can you please help as my emails are not working, havnt received or been able to send since yesterday and tried everything, pls help

  • shreyasi_1905 Shreyasi (@shreyasi_1905) reported

    @Outlook For my new work email is setup on iPhone 13 pro, error thrown is ‘blocked’ by admin. Please help. Have tried everything there was to try. The customer support can’t seem to resolve it either. It’s very imp to sync my email on phone.

  • cullen_ian Ian Cullen (@cullen_ian) reported

    It’s the little ways where iOS and Microsoft don’t integrate that are the most grating. I can’t start at a section of an email & highlight down in the @Outlook app because the app thinks I’m trying to scroll down. It’s a small irritating thing.

  • drulum Calum Andrew Morrell (@drulum) reported

    @PetrocTrelawny @Outlook Their service status page is showing they're not aware of any problems at present. Do you know how to show full headers and see where the failure is occurring?

  • The_Void______ ╦ ╠╣ Σ \/ ó ║ Ð (@The_Void______) reported

    @floatbot I have recently found a vulnerability in your domain but unable to report it as your system isn't accepting email. Receiving the following error (The group Bugbounty isn't set up to receive messages from *****@outlook.com). How can I proceed further to report?

  • ChristinaAMN scum//bunny (@ChristinaAMN) reported

    Every single work day, I curse @Outlook and @SalesforceOrg for the stupid fuckery their programs put me through. Some very obvious ease of use issues they COULD fix but will probably ignore. 😭

  • phanT1975 CEOVince (@phanT1975) reported

    @Outlook @RyanCartiers Why don’t you ever fix the issues when I tweet? I’ve been in business 10 years and my biggest complaint is outlook. I sure hope you care because you are hurting my business as it is so time consuming to delete emails and it should be the click of a button. HELP!

  • broude1 Brett R (@broude1) reported

    @Outlook I stopped receiving notifications on my phone. Ive reset the app, change notification settings, and nothing has changed. Please fix this!

  • NaomiLWood Naomi Langford-Wood (@NaomiLWood) reported

    @PetrocTrelawny @GlasgowAlbum @Outlook Just looked it up and Outlook is not experiencing any problems today. Ma j be so bold as to suggest you save them as drafts, exit, switch off, wait a few minutes and turn in again? It maybe software in a loop

  • nicetri Todd Foust (@nicetri) reported

    What is going on over there at @Outlook team? This client is progressively getting worse and worse over the past couple years. Perf issues, UI not painting at times, hangs. This needs some polishing folks.

  • RohanSovis Francesco Rohan Sovis (@RohanSovis) reported

    @Outlook Hello, we are experiencing unexpected Outlook crash when reply or reply to all and forwarding an email from Outlook 2019 and Microsoft 365 App for Business. Do you have any clue on this issue?

  • juanpablogome10 Juan pablo (@juanpablogome10) reported

    @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps Hi, can you please help me with a security issue?

  • PetrocTrelawny Petroc Trelawny (@PetrocTrelawny) reported

    Email fun - all my @Outlook email messages coming back ‘delivery has failed’. Same form multiple platforms/devices. Anyone else having this problem ?

  • JoZzer__ JoZzer (@JoZzer__) reported

    @Outlook Hi Microsoft, how long we will have the mail display problem in Outlook 2016/2019 and 365 -(display in plain text not html) Looks @Reddit

  • jabesmxtv jabesmx (@jabesmxtv) reported

    @Outlook Unless troubleshooting it for you is a paid position, I'm cool. I'll keep working around the issue.

  • marirsv Sri Ram Varadharajan (@marirsv) reported

    @Outlook did you guys figure out if this is indeed a bug ? It has been a while and I still have the same problem.

  • tpgraham T Graham 🥃 (@tpgraham) reported

    @Outlook Anyone reported issues with Outlook for Mac 16.63 and images? Our org is no longer getting screenshots that are sent from this version.

  • ZioElsydeon Zio🏳️‍🌈 (@ZioElsydeon) reported

    Nevermind, this isn't an @Outlook specific problem and more sites are now ******* with me, thanks, definitely what I needed on top of everything else for no reason. Whatever ******** my wild guess about the ip address is, I have even less of a ******* clue how to fix it

  • teroblepuns David Zaharie (@teroblepuns) reported

    @marirsv @Microsoft @Outlook I have a similar problem. What was your outcome?

  • wsbeck wendy beck (@wsbeck) reported

    @Outlook Personal account. Paid for Microsoft 365 -- and ever since nothing but trouble.

  • shreyasi_1905 Shreyasi (@shreyasi_1905) reported

    @Outlook They have tried but not able to solve the problem. I keep getting standard replies from them which are not solving the issue. Please help!

  • shreyasi_1905 Shreyasi (@shreyasi_1905) reported

    @Outlook They do. Even they can’t figure the issue. Teams is working fine on the phone. It’s just the outlook app. I urge you to help me here. I’m pretty helpless now.

  • Dan99St Daniel (@Dan99St) reported

    @Outlook Your severs seem to actively block emails from those who send multiples. Sometimes, users need that to be dialed down. Do you have a solution?

  • RyanCartiers RyanCartier (@RyanCartiers) reported

    @Outlook The Feedback appears to be a suggestion tool, not a way to fix it.
