Microsoft Azure Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Luca Steeb (@steebchen) reportedjust paid $100 for the @Azure support plan just to have an underpaid offshore person tell me that there is no other way of filling a manual form for EVERY goddamn model to lift limits for a new account
-
Jon Olson (@jonolson_) reported@Azure "Clicking through the Azure Portal to manually create a Job and a Task is incredibly tedious and completely defeats the purpose of using a massive, scalable compute service like Azure Batch." -Gemini 3 Pro
-
Kodeus (@TheKodeusLabs) reported@NVIDIADC @Azure Infra is scaling fast to bring agents into production, but infrastructure alone doesn’t solve the core problem running agents is one thing, trusting their execution is another.
-
Chris ✈️🇧🇷🇵🇹🇺🇸🌍 (@crismsantos) reported@guyrleech @Azure That's why I have different brose profiles for each service I need to use frequently (avoids 100% this issue if used correctly) For accounts not used do frequently I do access using the incognito mode
-
Prem (@premsha2301) reported@Azure Do u have any idea to solve my issue
-
Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@Azure @ghbdigital @AzureSupport Official account: redirect to support. Support: open a ticket. Problem: still yours.
-
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)
-
Evan Burness (@evanburness) reportedReally nice work by @Signal_65 articulating the #HPC performance and customer value prop of @Azure HBv5 VMs. ~5x speedup v. alternatives for CFD is huge!!
-
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
-
Mani (@manitofighh) reportedHow Azure billed us $25,000 > Be me > run experiments across AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure > script terminates all instances across all cloud providers > Normal charges from AWS and GCP after instances are termianted > 12 days later, get a notification about a $25,000 bill from Azure > Thinking we got hacked > The Azure dashboard makes it IMPOSSIBLE to figure out *what exactly* was incurring charges. Just a bunch of generic cost break-down > Finally figure things out and delete all resources in the resource group that was previously turned off > Somehow, half the instances were off but not "deallocated" and half were both off and deallocated (but the script used the same command for all instance terminations??) > Ask Azure to dispute charges because this makes no sense > Azure closes ticket without a resolution??? > Reopen ticket > Azure: Sorry, we understand, but nothing we can do > ?????????????????????? @Azure @Microsoft this literally rips apart our research funding and limits our future projects. This is the most messed up way to bill off of weird policies like this
-
N810 (@nathansaadat) reported@Microsoft @Azure i’ve been trying to get a dynamics 365 business central license for six weeks now. None of your “providers” will contact me. Please help me. I don’t understand why it’s so hard for a small business to use your product.
-
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?
-
Conor O'Neill (@conoro) reportedOf all the hyperscalers, @AzureSupport's refusal to do timely updates on their status dashboard is absolutely enraging. The last time Azure OpenAI had a problem in late October, MS finally updated the dashboard 3 hours after the outage began! Does @Azure even have a NOC?
-
Renzo Canepa (@rcanepag) reported@Azure Every generation request takes so long that the service is unusable. Even 1024x1024 images can take more than 5 minutes to complete.

Behrooz Evans (@BehEvans) reportedI hate everything you have @Azure worst platform ever

Dead Ä̷̬͖̽͗P̷̭̳͔͇̊ on CompSciFutures (∀/∃/acc) (@CompSciFutures) reported𝗪𝗥𝗧. $𝗠𝗦𝗙𝗧 𝗖𝗟𝟬𝗪𝗗 𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗦𝗜𝗖𝗦 Annoucing "MSFT CLOUD #FORENSICS". 🧵 Got problems with #McKinsey #CIA making your $MSFT @MSCloud files going missing, with no logs or audit trails to explain where they went or that they even existed? Well, this should help...
-
PeterD (@PitiDuong) reported@Azure How can I know which projects are receiving your support?
-
Jackartoons (@jackartoons) reportedSo disappointing to see @AWSstartups and its lack of support to startups unlike @Azure @AzureSupport who are helpful and accessible.
-
Brad Gessler (@bradgessler) reportedA big reason is because you can’t sign up for half of the hyperscalers. Today I tried to open an @Azure account today & the anti-bot mechanism was broken. I then tried @googlecloud & adding an address to billing was broken. They just don’t care anymore. 🤷
-
Ganesh Behera (@ghbdigital) reported1/ We are in the AI era, yet our Azure issue remains unresolved after days. A live beta application has been impacted, users have been affected, and the response has still been “please allow more time.” That is not the standard businesses expect from @Azure @AzureSupport.
-
Poletto (@Its_Alan_Paul) reported@msft4startups @Azure We need more support
-
Ganesh Behera (@ghbdigital) reported@Azure @AzureSupport Thanks, but this issue has already caused prolonged downtime and serious business impact. We need urgent manual review, not just a redirect. Please have @AzureSupport review our case immediately and help with reactivation or data recovery. I can share the support case no by DM.

AvantGarde 🇺🇸 ❤️🔥 🇷🇺 (@KaleidoJosh) reported@Azure @AzureSupport Your content filtering for models is so ******* strict. I didn't live 34 years just to not be allowed to 'cuss' or say '****' - you block everything. I could die tomorrow but at least you prevented me from reading '*****' . **** YOU.
-
Inflectiv AI ⧉ (@inflectivAI) reported@Azure Using real-world architectures ensures that your application is built to handle professional workloads from the very beginning. Following these proven patterns helps avoid common scaling issues and security mistakes that usually happen during early development.

SeenThroughaLens (@LensSeen) reported@Azure Nobody in your terrible support what to help when an issues is outside of the norm. I owe you money but you are preventing me from paying you !
-
Rohan Magdum 🇮🇳 (@RohanMagdum7) reportedUsually it’s complaints here… today it’s appreciation. Got stuck with my certification issue, but @AzureSupport @Azure @MSCloud followed up every single day for 5 days and fixed it today. Not AI bots. Real support. Respect...!

Quentin | Solo builder (@quentin_zhangy) reportedgpt-5.2 on Azure is down? has been returning 400 error "The model was unable to complete inference due to an internal error." for hours. @Azure
-
Ghost🧭 (@Badbreed95) reportedCan I sue @Safaricom_Care for giving out my number to someone else? Am at risk of losing my data because @MSCloud can not allow me to login to account, that number is registered to the number in question
