    Hey @Outlook I can’t change my password because I can’t change my phone number. How do I fix this so I don’t lose my email address? I’ve been trying for a solid month with not one thing working and everything I do try you deny saying not enough information to grant me access!

    @comeasyouareTO @Outlook That is to say one login attempt with the correct password is not too many times with the incorrect password

    @Outlook @Microsoft Why does Microsoft make it increasingly difficult to sign in to check Outlook?? If you’re trying to make it “better”, you’re failing hard. I wish you could take your email address with you to a different provider like your phone number.

    @Outlook I need to speak with an outlook technician ASAP. Using your website to fix my issue is exhausting and terrible. I need a human, not AI.

    Over 10 lockouts and endless appeals later, @Outlook is officially the most "secure" account I own—mostly because even I can't get into it. @Microsoft , please fix this verification loop. It’s exhausting.

    Anyone using @Outlook on iOS having massive issues lately? Emails looking like they’ve been sent to only delete the message and return a blank email to draft without sending the original email? Emails ready to send, but the exit and send buttons won’t work. The app isn’t frozen, but you have to force close the app and hope the latest draft saved all changes. This is only happening on iOS to my knowledge

    @Outlook Hi, I’m experiencing an issue with OTP detection in Outlook notifications. When I request a GitHub OTP, Outlook shows a “Copy OTP” option, but it only captures 6 digits, whereas GitHub OTPs sometimes contain 8 characters. This leads to incorrect copying and fail

    @Microsoft @Office @Outlook Why does Outlook for Mac always have non-stop issues? Why is my desktop app unable to Sync or connect for hours, sometimes even the entire day, multiple times per month? There's some MAJOR issues inside Outlook for Mac OS and it's not just mine.

    Is it just me, or has @Outlook become an absolute pile of garbage that has us loathing Microsoft Corporation. Bad software has become absolute garbage. I open this junk, my accounts are no longer set up, then you need a PhD in computer science to fix the problem.
