    @Office @Outlook Worlds largest Email client and cannot fix POP IMAP which even Ai cannot fix. If anyone believes Ai is next frontier for Microsoft, No its fixing basic email configuration and servers. Failed at everything and Pain customers can't get out of..Shame

    Microsoft @Outlook is beyond broken. I accidentally wrote a wrong email ID (external) which failed to deliver. Now, I am trying to send it to the correct id, but outlook keeps "correcting" me to the wrong one. No intuitive way to bypass this. This has to be a joke or something.

    Microsoft has to stop making so many changes to its menus in Outlook. It increases irritation and cognitive load too much if people constantly are having to track down where a command is, such as how to insert an emoji in an email. @Outlook #microsoft #microsoftoutlook

    @Outlook Outlook won't accept the images, even though they are very small. I'm wasting a lot of time. It's an incredibly primitive issue.

    @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook when are you going to get your **** together and get the iPhone problem fixed? We're going on 3 days now.

    @Microsoft cannot make @Outlook find emails in one's inbox. So much of time is being wasted everyday because Outlook doesn't work. Could someone explain to me why anyone should trust their AI models? If they are so good why don't you use it to fix the email??

    The AI bot will tell you that @Outlook know there is an issue too, so this is not new, and still not fixed. Brilliant.

    @Outlook I'm trying to sign into my email. It keeps telling me to enter a second email address to "protect my account". I only have one email. I don't want a second email. I'm old fashioned, I just want to sign in using my password, and access my emails.

    @HindlesKitchen @Outlook When I used to use Apple, I didn't have as many issues, no where near as bad as the phishing I get on MS

    @Outlook I have been trying to get to a live agent for AGES regarding an issue with my account (which has been hacked) and I haven’t received a single helpful response! I am unable to jump on a chat with life agent anymore! How am I supposed to recover my account with no help!!

    @Outlook wtf is going on with email login -- why is the valid password with the special characters that you made me specifically choose not enough for me to login from the same exact laptop I use every day?

    @thefrostlord @Outlook SAME PROBLEM HERE FROSTLORD- Correct passwords are not being accepted by Outlook: "You've tried to sign in too many times with an incorrect account or password."

    I really do not understand why do I have to keep signing into the damn email so many times. @Outlook @Office What happened to the keep me sign in feature? Jeeeez

  • waded

    @Outlook please fix Android app notification actions. I hit DELETE on the notification, I want the notification to dismiss in 500ms or less, and I expect that the next time I check inbox, what I said I wanted deleted is deleted. Network delay, already-deleted-elsewhere, not even visible in inbox yet, yeah I know these things happen, but they can't be allowed to let the notification go unresponsive to actions taken.

    @Microsoft @satyanadella @Outlook Hi Satya. I’ve had my Microsoft account for over 12 years with my correct date of birth. After my account was compromised, someone changed my birth year and Microsoft began treating my account as if I were 12 years old. I’ve tried repeatedly to correct this and recover my correct age, without success. Now Microsoft is introducing age verification in Brazil while my account remains incorrectly classified as belonging to a child. How is a longtime adult customer supposed to fix this when the account recovery process itself has failed?

    My live/microsoft userid/email is in some leaked hack db and now I keep getting these Authenticator requests every few hours by someone trying to access my account. @Microsoft @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps is there a way to geofence my account and lock all access attempts from other countries. This can’t be just a problem unique to me
