Hey @Outlook how the hell do you expect someone to sign in with this broken authenticator app?! I can't login because you've locked me out of my account so I can't contact support. I've had the same email for 25yrs.... Now all of a sudden, it's what...fraud??

@Outlook every single time I try and log into my email account, I get a message saying ‘too many requests’ and then I’m kicked out. I rely heavily on my emails for work. Please can you sort this out? I’ve had endless problems with you as an email provider lately, you’re a joke.

@Outlook I can't get into my hotmail account. It keeps asking for me to authenticate, have tried to reset my password and just keeps asking me to sign in again. It seems like this is a widespread problem but no official word from Microsoft/Outlook? Is there a fix time on this?
