    @Outlook looks like a problem with outlook in uk. I can’t login on Apple devices. Seems ok on my windows 10 laptop.

  • clintos86 Clint (@clintos86) reported

    @Outlook not quite sure how sending (or trying to send) an email is seen as unusual activity and being told to sign in 1,000 times yet I never got told to sign in when I was nearly charged £59.99 for an office subscription. WHY CAN’T I SEND EMAILS!!!!!!!

  • bw91bw Becky (@bw91bw) reported

    For anyone else having trouble with their @outlook password being incorrect for no reason & verification declined , after nearly 2 weeks of no customer service at all I’ve started the painstaking process of attempting to switch everything to a new gmail account. Good luck all 👍🏼

  • EmilyBarnsleyy bIm ✊🏿 (@EmilyBarnsleyy) reported from Deal, England

    @Whirly90 @Outlook it’s so annoying, it keeps asking me to sign in and stuff. Super buggy 🙄

  • redbullcat Phil Oakley (@redbullcat) reported

    The fact shared Outlook calendars appear not to update once you've added them to Google Calendar is the worst. @Outlook @Office365 please fix this!

    @MurraySuggests @Outlook I had no idea how much Rothbard loved your email server. @Microsoft365
