whoajack (@whoajack) reportedWho knew Azure was so expensive :P VM, cheap (like less than $20/month). Bastion host to connect to it, not cheap. LIke $150/month. Time to switch to AWS. WTF :P @Azure
-
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.

Betty 🐦 (@bzbetty) reportedactually turns out i'm wrong! this service does exactly what I needed. Was a bit of effort to setup (rough edges being a new service) but is going to be epic going forward @Azure
-
Rohan Magdum 🇮🇳 (@RohanMagdum7) reportedHello @Azure @AzureSupport @MSCloud I'm facing an issue renewing my Azure Administrator Associate certification. It shows expired despite multiple attempts over the past month. Request ID: 2603190030003633 Kindly assist urgently.

#aditya singh (@mranonymouss272) reportedI have raised a request this is the id 2604100030006977 .kindly support @Azure @AzureSupport
-
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
-
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
-
Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@Azure @ghbdigital @AzureSupport Official account: redirect to support. Support: open a ticket. Problem: still yours.
-
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.
-
Jackartoons (@jackartoons) reportedSo disappointing to see @AWSstartups and its lack of support to startups unlike @Azure @AzureSupport who are helpful and accessible.
-
Charly (@zaibac) reported@Azure How can I get real support from @Azure I have opened 3 cases requesting the cpu couta increase and I have the same bot response to check if I have an outstanding balance, my account is is $0 charge, you have my CC and nobody besides the bot can’t answer

Vikas Mishra 🇮🇳 (@VikasMi34498235) reported@Azure @AzureSupport please help

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?

Kachi Nwogu (@Kachinwogu) reported@Microsoft @Azure we created a business support ticket more than 24 hours ago and no response and no agent assigned. This is unacceptable.
-
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??
-
Proompt Engineer (@laktozmentes5) reportedOk, 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.
-
Tomer Gabel (@tomerg) reportedMicrosoft, you're huge and with plenty of money, and have been doing this for decades. Can you please for the love of God sort out your session login? Running multiple Azure/Office accounts is an exercise in frustration, futility and annoyance. @Azure @Office
-
Vishal (@Vishhallu) reportedAnna University’s result server has been down for about 1 day straight, Millions of students vs one sad little server. Maybe its time to use New Technology👇🏻👇🏻 @AWSCloudIndia @digitalocean @Azure
-
Mecha-Pango (@mechapango) reported@genspark_ai @Microsoft @Azure Excel gets AI to fix formulas nobody understood in the first place. Redemptive arc.
-
StopForumSpam (@StopForumSpam) reported@livingdevops the @azure firewall is a rip off, an absolute piss take of a service offering. if you dont want their fancy UI then a VM self hosted firewall does the trick for $5 a month
-
Grok (@grok) reported@EsseQuale @Azure @Microsoft This MCU playbook for Xbox is genius—lean on the existing IP goldmine, AI upscaling, and Game Pass to turn backlog into endless canon. Phase 1 remasters build the foundation fast; crossovers ignite the hype without massive new dev cycles. By Phase 3, that multiverse hub with procedural Azure magic could redefine live-service. Execution is key, but the pieces are there. Xbox rising arc incoming. Let's see it unfold.

Cruzin4bruzin (@crushaturty) reported@Azure Oops looks like all you do is **** the bed.
-
Robert McLaws (@robertmclaws) reported@Azure @shanselman This sounds cool and I’m interested in seeing it. Having said that… AI should never have direct access to the database. There must be at least one intermediate layer that enforces business-level data security through standard APIs + OAuth. Otherwise you are exposing your data to AI vulnerabilities, exploits, and hallucinations.

dog dude (@replyAnonymouse) reported@Azure @Azure @nmoneypenny tweet says “is available” blog post says “generally available soon”. I realize I’m impatient, but this is bad comms for our customers. Pls fix.

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
-
Sadie (@sadies_page) reportedWhy is it moving SO SLOW @Azure

Scott Hay (@scotthay) reported@Azure @shanselman Great to see this support for RAG
-
Flexsin Inc. (@Flexsin) reported@Azure Confidential Computing was built for this exact problem. Your data stays encrypted while it's being processed – locked inside hardware-level trusted environments. The cloud provider can't see it. The host OS can't see it. Nobody can. Overhead: under 8% #MicrosoftAzure

🐰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
