  @Microsoft365 @MicrosoftHelps @Azure I purchased 3 Microsoft 365 licenses and have already paid for two months, but I’m unable to access admin credentials. Toll-free support isn’t resolving the issue, and local office calls go unanswered.

  @Azure Great initiative for businesses that want practical AI adoption without unnecessary complexity. Clear guidance and real world implementation steps can help more companies confidently start their AI journey with Azure.

  It seems @Azure SQL Servers/Databases have connectivity issues. Intermittent in the last few days but nothing on their status page 😭 #azure #sqlserver #connectivity

  @Microsoft / @Azure - Keep charging the monthly charge, and I’ll keep denying the payment. I’ve already cancelled this service for a full year and you’ve not acknowledged nor honored the request. The money is not yours. You shouldn’t even have access to the card you charge.

  @Azure gpt-image-2 image editing is not working through your api. generating is working fine though.

  @peterpreketes @Azure Speed isn’t just about tools; it’s about the strategy behind them. Most deployments fail not because of lack of tech but due to poor planning and unclear objectives. Bicep can’t fix that.

  There is absolutely no way to create a ticket on Azure Support even after taking $100 support plan. It's P0 issue our systems are down and there are so many unnecessary forms. @MicrosoftIndia @Microsoft @Azure We need immediate help.

  @AzureSupport @Azure Can someone from the Azure team please help? My production subscription was disabled and the app has been down for hours, affecting real users. Case 2606020030002066 was reviewed but remains closed. Requesting urgent escalation and manual re-review. I can provide any verification or documents needed immediately.

  @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?

  Ok, I finally got approved for better rate limits on @Azure which surprised me cos I’ve been waiting for months… It seems they fixed a few issues and the models feel somewhat reliable now? Also got access to both Claude and GPT models now. Yay. Good job Microsoft.

  Enterprise AI vendors have a credibility problem when they sell broad use intelligence while their own product documentation is inaccurate. If the system’s deterministic behavior is already codified, documenting it clearly in natural language should be table stakes in this world... 👀 @Azure @MSCloud 👀

  Jesse Wursten (@JesseWursten) reported 32 minutes ago

  Still think it's an incredible business model when @Azure keeps giving me a 8vCPU CPU even when I select (and pay for) one with 32 or 48, but to get any support on this bug I need to pay THEM?

  @Azure making shift-enter run queries is the most dangerous thing in the world. Holy crap! DELETE FROM <enter> students <shift+enter> WHERE <enter> id = 327 Sincerly, Someone who is thankful he is only selecting in this azure interface

  @Azure Azure sucks

  BagerX (@Bagerix) reported 35 minutes ago

  Unacceptable for an "enterprise" cloud. @awscloud & @Azure give grace periods to prevent disasters. GCP shutting down a live business over a minor payment delay is UNSAFE. We lost actual customers today. Moving our infrastructure immediately. Fix this @AskGoogleCloud! (2/2)

  AI experiments are one thing. Running them at scale is another. Check out how Wrtn uses @Azure OpenAI Service and the new o1 model:

  @Azure Token caching appears to be broken for GPT-5.6 models on Azure - every request is reporting zero cached tokens. Hope this gets fixed soon.

  Fit Solutions Corp (@FitSolutionCorp) reported 39 minutes ago

  concerning that a critical production issue impacting our clients has been open with Microsoft Power Pages support for over 2 weeks without meaningful response or escalation. We are heavily invested in the Microsoft ecosystem and need accountability and timely support @MSCloud

  @Azure - Please your support for smaller businesses need to get way better. :(

  Microsoft needs to replace their Azure customer support team. How tf can every legit call I receive from them sound like a scam????? @Azure

  @Azure "The question isn't where AI should run—it’s how many billions of dollars are being wasted running models on unoptimized, chaotic data estates just to satisfy FOMO. You can't out-build bad data architecture with more compute."

  @weezerOSINT Now imagine how much big companies pay for defender for business or e3 and e5 just to have the thing they pay for help hackers deliver the virus LMAO @Microsoft @Azure fix your ****

  @bradgessler @Azure @googlecloud Yeah it’s been broken for at least a month now

  @Azure Evaluation to enforcement is the right loop. Agent trust is not a one-time test; it needs repeated policy checks, runtime controls, and evidence that the fix actually changed behavior before the agent gets more scope.

  Hey @Azure @MicrosoftIndia — I was charged ₹1,700 for a 'NetworkWatcherRG' that was AUTO-CREATED by Azure in UAE North during my learning practice. I never intentionally deployed it. Already deleted it. Kindly look into Invoice #G157606830 and process a refund. #MicrosoftAzure

  @florianbador @Azure Login requires a phone you don't have. Cancellation requires login. Support tickets require login. Every exit goes through the same locked door.
