@Outlook is there any issues with log in at the moment. Trying to log in to email connected to my Instagram and it’s not working, giving completely different recovery details that I don’t recognise.

Hey @Outlook on the new Outlook desktop client it seems like the spell check cannot handle mixed language messages. In the old Outlook desktop which heavily relied on Word for editing this wasn't an issue. Will this be fixed?

@Outlook Is there a human that can help with customer problems??? I've tried the stupid "recovery form" multiple times, but it doesn't work, and there's no email to contact customer support. I live in Africa, and your CS is worse than the Cape Town Metro service

Again... @Microsoft @Outlook @XboxSupport I hope you people see this... I can't reach a human being in regards to my issue and you guys seem to think it's OK that I lose all this money and time. I've been with you since the beginning but Im ready to switch to ps5 and a macbook

(@JayWhattheF) reported
@Outlook is the worst email option. Especially when you try to use it on a laptop or desktop. It loads 1 out of every 10 times and then bogs down even the most top of the line systems more often than not. Bleach is the only drink for the people of that company.

@Outlook SOS! Since 3 days ago I’ve had issues with my Outlook mail. I received a pop-up on my iPad (iOS 16.1) telling me that my Outlook mail account’s password is incorrect. I ignored the error and later when I was checking my inbox I noticed all my emails are gone! Help me!

Dear @sundarpichai Sorry for the trouble, but can you kindly ask someone to fix the text formatting in @gmail so that it becomes compatible with @Outlook? There are several size/font mismatches when we use Gmail on browser & it lands in someone's outlook. Long standing issue.

@Outlook Thanks, but this is not a MDM issue, it seems to be an issue with the most recent version og #Outlook for Android. All I need to know, is how to downgrade to the previous version.

@Outlook can you PLEASE fix the spam filter!! For the last 3 or 4 months, spam has been flooding my inbox, and even if some spam does get forwarded to the Junk folder, Outlook automatically flags it as “Important”, which then ends up in my Flagged folder on my iPhone.

@Outlook is the worst email service, its literally impossible to get help. All support is online but you never speak to a person and all of the pages lead to a dead end error. i am locked out of my account that ive had for years, recovery says it doesn’t exist

@films_must Same issue here. I've been trying to send emails from Gmail to @live.com and @outlook.com accounts, just a few of them have reached the inboxes. I am starting to think the issue comes from Google and not Microsoft since now my Gmail account doesn't even work.

@Outlook Hi there guys! Just want to ask a quick question: is there any chance that you can fix the bug in Outlook for Mac that doesn't auto-fill the name of the sender in «To:» field? It's known for a couple of years already :(

Junk mail filtering on Hotmail / @Outlook Live has gone from acceptable to wildly broken and has remained that way for a month. Perhaps it's time to give up the account after over 20 years.

Hi @Outlook team, the latest build of Outlook app for Android is causing issues with device password policy. Suddenly after upgrade users are prompted to change the device pin to min 8 digits. Is there anything changed in the app policies?
