    @Outlook It seems that there would have been enough complaints about this by now that there should have been something in the works to fix it. I also use a second email service that does not have this problem. You can forward this to your developers if you like.

    @tammiew @Outlook Yeah, mine's been inaccessible for days. It literally won't even come up on a desktop computer as a site to do--anything. Sign in, delete, email--anything. #Hotmail @Outlook

  • kjb_cpa Kyle J. Bauman, CPA (@kjb_cpa) reported

    MS @Outlook just told me it doesn’t trust the @MicrosoftTeams add-in and disabled it upon start up. I just feel like that’s a personal issue that #Microsoft should be sorting out amongst itself. I don’t need to be brought into that drama.

    @Outlook @hwji Hi, I have been experiencing the same problem for 2 days now. I can’t create a new account. I complete the verify you’re not a robot successfully and it just loops me right back to it every time.

  • UTExpat DeVon Griffin (@UTExpat) reported

    @Outlook just tried to INCORRECTLY get me to change a “me” to an “I”. One would never write “give it to l”. That’s why “give it to Bob and I” is incorrect. Fix your grammar checker. “Give it to Bob and me”😣

    @Outlook Are you still going to ignore this issue?
