  • EllenaJohnston Ellena Johnston (@EllenaJohnston) reported

    I have given you all my info and life story. I’ve even gained access and changed the password? All I want to do is change an old number so you stop directing me through HELL and you won’t allow it. Your system is bugged. I am told it is technology. So fix it! @Outlook

  • manojn Manoj Nagpal (@manojn) reported

    Hey @Outlook, with increased adoption of @Fastmail would you prioritise fixing conversation thread, search and contact compatibility/issues of your iOS apps?

  • sidrahliaqat Sidrah (@sidrahliaqat) reported

    @Outlook @borbajosue Came here to complain about the same issue! This 30 day restriction is completely useless. If somebody is trying to recover their account NOW, they don’t have time to wait 30 day to get into their account. This will only serve to accumulate countless abandoned accounts.

  • dfaulkner_14 Danny Faulkner (@dfaulkner_14) reported

    @Outlook is there anyone that can help me recover an email address that's seem to be in limbo? It was made an alias to my microsoft account, when I try and sign in it says the account doesn't exist and when I try and create the same email address it says it is a reserved domain

  • Ecru88 Ecru (@Ecru88) reported from Ontario, California

    @Outlook good morning, my work email I use for Microsoft outlook is not working properly. I can send emails, receive automated emails, but I cannot receive emails. Can I get some help please.

  • sourabh_web Sourabh | Smart contract | NFT | Blockchain | Web3 (@sourabh_web) reported

    @gmail I have @Outlook as my email provider that doesn't mean you will send my emails in spam in gmail Inboxes. Our team and Outlook team did everything in our capability to resolve this. Please stop being kid and resolve my issues!! #shamegmail @sundarpichai

  • shanks2727 Galena De Cosmo (@shanks2727) reported

  • rardk64 rar (@rardk64) reported

    Probably about a year ago, I switched from Gmail to @Outlook. I've had no regrets, HOWEVER if there is one thing, it's that the Outlook web client is very slow to load. I use my phone most of the time so it's not often an issue, but when it is, oof.

  • nickstenning Nick Stenning (@nickstenning) reported

    Sure, @Outlook, it’s ok that forwarding is broken this morning. I didn’t really need to forward that email. I see you, looking out for my colleagues’ inboxes.

  • mniehaus Michael Niehaus (@mniehaus) reported from Sammamish, Washington

    What's up with @Outlook on Android? For the past two weeks it's been very slow opening E-mails (4-5 seconds each).

  • existentialjade Jade (@existentialjade) reported

    @Outlook is hands down the most user *unfriendly* email suite I have ever used and I wish it didn't have a chokehold on half the "professional" world.

  • sukunai_itadori Darkskinned Girl (@sukunai_itadori) reported
