I AM METATRON, HERALD OF THE ALMIGHTY AND VOICE OF (@these2balls) reported@PandasAndVidya Wait... HOUSTON informed Artemis II the toilet is fixed? What, is the toilet running on @Windows 11 and they cant take a **** unless the toilet does a daily check-in with @Azure ?

Syed Sameer (@syedsameer2024) reported@AzureSupport @Azure We joined for startup support, but unexpected charges we thought Azure credits covered put us at risk of suspension. We’re unable to pay now and request a review of these charges plus an extension or relief. We value long-term partnership. #Azure #Startups

Damian Figiel (@DamianCTO) reported@Azure just lost its most valuable competitive edge. @OpenAI officially ended its cloud exclusivity with Microsoft. Their models can now be deployed on any cloud provider, and AWS CEO @ajassy already confirmed GPT models are coming to Bedrock "in the coming weeks." This was always going to happen. You can't build a $150B AI company and let one vendor own your distribution channel forever. The 2019 Azure exclusivity deal made sense when OpenAI needed survival compute. In 2026, it was just dead weight. The real lesson is that single-cloud dependencies in AI were always a bad bet. Model access, GPU availability, data sovereignty, you want optionality in all three. Anyone who locked their AI stack to Azure assuming exclusivity would last is doing some uncomfortable math right now. Is your AI stack still locked to one cloud or are you already spreading the risk?

Aditya Jivoji (@adityajivoji) reported@Azure tried to sign-up for a new azure account. wtf is the ‘Press and Hold’ challenge. I tried 23 times and it still does not work. what is wrong with you @Microsoft there is no other way I can prove I am a human? just this one option. wtf??

misshelenamy (@misshelenn1) reported@DalpraJuan @Azure @AzureSupport Mine was resolved with his support ZackLegion here on X
-
Robert Harju (@RobertHarju) reportedBe careful with anything @Microsoft /@Azure related. They used a card that’s linked to my sons XBox to charge a service that I’ve attempted to cancel multiple times. Apparently they’re able to pull card information across platforms? Pretty shady if you ask me.
-
Jon Olson (@jonolson_) reported@Azure "This specific error actually isn't an Azure Batch configuration problem or a permissions issue—it is a hardware architecture mismatch." (oops this was my fault for building a docker image on Mac m4 and targeting x86)
-
MergenChat (@mergenchat) reported@Azure gpt-image-2 image editing is not working through your api. generating is working fine though.
-
Karthik (@_karthik) reportedTIL having Azure credits doesn't give you access to GPU-instances this is a really bad (even stupid!) move that i had to double check with the agent who denied my request folks who have credits shouldn't be treated any lesser than folks who're on pay as you go plans. cc @Azure

Thomas Swenson | SWENTEK | Built MSFT Azure Spine (@swenTEKOps) reported@Azure @NetApp Synchronous replication and service managed failover Key stuff Microsoft Azure !

sercanov (@sercanov) reported@openclaw I’d ask for Azure Foundry support but even OpenClaw would get lost and confused in @Azure docs…
-
Nikshep Shetty (@21niksshetty) reported@Azure @MicrosoftHelps Hi, My Azure account has been blocked due to inability "AADSTS5000225" how can I unblock it, I never got an email saying it is was getting blocked? I don't really care about my old progress.
-
Proompt Engineer (@laktozmentes5) reportedbro is @Azure down again? I got DeploymentNotFound for all my azure openai models
-
sercanov (@sercanov) reported@Azure are you going to fix your foundy dashboard? every section shows different base url / target uris
-
🔶Martin Goss🔶 (@MartinGossCol) reported@Azure terrible lack of support for a paying customer. How do I get to speak to a human being please? Seems absolutely useless support.
-
Manish (@mkagenius) reportedMicrosoft @Azure deciding to bring on vendors on contracts from companies like lti Mindtree and other small companies to handle critical customer support has to be one of the worst things Microsoft has done. They are extremely robotic to an extremely sensitive issues. They are almost like robots. They have learned to use chatgpt to generate a reply which by the way doesn't even answer what was asked. They just repeat what you said - "I see you asking about this issue" and then say something which doesn't even address the issue.

Florian Bador (@florianbador) reported@Azure : Remove this insanity of #AuthenticatorApp! I created a new biz account for some emailing, put the debit card, then the login forces to setup that stupid app, but I don't own a smartphone (and won't borrow anyone's). I tried to call support but got disconnected, calling again leads nowhere. At this point I could not even cancel the membership because I cannot login... Madness! Just let the customer decides what they want as 2FA!!! They know better, you control-freaks. So what am I supposed to do at this point? Cannot login, cannot setup auth app, cannot even cancel because cannot login, cannot open a case online because cannot login, and no "Use another way" option to skip this silly Auth-App setup, and no Desktop App either since I run exclusively on Linux.... Why so complicated??? Keep It Simple Stupid. @Microsoft @Outlook
-
Wayne (@NetworksChat) reported@CodeEdison Because Microsoft / @Windows is so broken, it takes a lot of people to keep it running. A lot of people hate on the consumer edition window shines on the server side. @Azure Perhaps you should let designers stop re-ordering the code. #UUI

Neon Cosmo (@VowOfJudgment) reported@Azure The latest official Edge build can't synchronize Profiles with old MS Accounts like @live.com.ar We've had these accounts for around 20 years, and spent a lot of money on MS Store purchases. If #Microsoft does not fix this it's plain theft.
-
Cory B🅰️ttles (@CoryBattles) reported@Azure what an awful product for anyone with less than a doctorate to try to use. Days wasted, even with Claude's help. Endless circles of conflicting errors and rabbit holes. Support dead ends. Insanely frustrating. Claude's suggestion...give up, cut your losses, move on.

sbegum2895 (@iamsana28) reported@Azure @Microsoft I am stuck with your exam and there is no technical help. Even after finishing my exam I am unable to submit and unable to relaunch! Wasted 2hrs

Vikas Mishra 🇮🇳 (@VikasMi34498235) reported@AzureSupport @Azure @MicrosoftLearn I have been trying to resolve a certification issue for the last 20 days but it is still not resolved.Ticket: 2602180030002690.i did NOT delete my Microsoft Learn profile. I recently left my previous org HCL, and my company email may have been deactivated.

Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@ghbdigital @Azure Support flows are designed to filter urgency out. The severity selector protects their SLA metrics, not your uptime.
-
Ganesh Behera (@ghbdigital) reportedDisappointed with @Azure support. Our application has been down for over 16 hours, we have received no proper revert, and the support flow did not even allow us to select the right severity for a business-critical outage. Startups need better than this. #Azure #Microsoft
-
David McCarter (Microsoft MVP) (@realDotNetDave) reportedAzure says my subscription is disabled. Azure billing says I owe nothing. Support says… nothing. I’m a Microsoft MVP, and I’ve spent most of my morning chasing this billing black hole. 🫤 @Azure @AzureSupport @coolcsh #MVPBbuzz
-
thomas woelfer (@t_woelfer) reportedDer @Azure @AzureSupport - i'm trying to create a new App Service Plan (free). I currently have zero. I get the error message, my request for one (1) is over quota. That is, quite frankly, madness. (I already opened a ticket and asked for a quota increase.)
-
Alon Nisser (@alonisser) reported@cole_a_bennett @Azure turned out it was an outage and fixed, but detected on their side only after hours of this going on
-
🐰心事 (@yuangu_Petal) reported@Microsoft @Azure @OpenAI You partner with Sam Altman. But you also inherit his chaos.Promises made in Oct. Broken by Feb.Thousands of loyal users discarded with 2 weeks’ notice.What happens when that chaos hits your bottom line?How many customers can you afford to lose #keep4o

Peter Tht (@ptrtht) reported@rileybrown @Azure I'd pay this much to never touch Azure again.
