Teja patel (@tejakothapally1) reportedHello @AzureSupport @Azure, Im trying to install azure agent in the server to register the target in the deployment groups. I cannot able to do it even i have the administrator access. I’m getting insufficient permissions to register target. Kindly help.
-
Jeff Blankenburg (@jeffblankenburg) reportedI have never seen an organization more aggressive about NOT providing support than I am experiencing with @Azure right now. Can't log in, can't get support. So angry.
-
lolipopp (@lovisapnew) reported@Azure COPILOT IN AZURE IS USELESS AS HELL, IT DOESN’T SOLVE ****. IT FEELS LIKE AN AI MADE BY A 12-YEAR-OLD. If you offer Azure for Students, why the hell don’t the regions allow you to create free virtual machines? What the hell are those services even for?? screw all of you.
-
Luca Steeb (@steebchen) reported@Azure @Microsoft it must be a joke to pay $100 for support then still having to fill out this ****** form for EVERY SINGLE MODEL with 20 fields of the same IDs, names, data, email, etc and different ratios for TPM depending on the model. it can't be real? how does this pass product? is this a joke?
-
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 ?
-
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.

-
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.
-
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
-
Donnie (@towndrunk) reportedHad to contact support to transfer my @Azure grant. Support was super responsive! But now it won't let me apply the sponsor credits to my billing profile. Lol I'm trying to build @Copilot support agents for staff at the homeless shelter I work at. Pls fix.
-
Anže Vodovnik (@Avodovnik) reported@__tosh @Azure I started with trying to fix my old account with the right data, etc., no success. Then tried creating a brand new subscription. And it just fails randomly.
-
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
-
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
-
Ashish (@AI_geek01) reportedMicrosoft azure account having suspicious installing jason files in chat playground leading to excessive billing and still continuing. My reseller seems clueless. Please help asap. @Microsoft @Azure
-
André Ferreira (@dre_gentleman) reported@Azure is the crappiest software on earth, you never use it because it sucks then if you have to use it you get a message that your tenant was deactivated due to inactivity and there is nothing you can do about it #Microsoft #Azure
-
N810 (@nathansaadat) reported@Azure Okay I sent a DM. I would really appreciate your help.
-
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
-
Mark Xiong (@beaniedude0122) reportedMicrosoft needs to replace their Azure customer support team. How tf can every legit call I receive from them sound like a scam????? @Azure
-
Tom Sella (@tsella) reportedmicrosoft @Azure is the worst developer experience i've ever seen. from the tenant deletion (no recourse) to expired tokens, its like they are trying to keep people away from using it.
-
Vikas Mishra 🇮🇳 (@VikasMi34498235) reported@Azure @AzureSupport please help
-
StopForumSpam (@StopForumSpam) reported@guyrleech @GoogleWorkspace After messing with my entra UPN, I can no longer use entra to log into servers. What’s the bet I can use Google to log into them now? Sort this **** out @azure
-
sprintfPython (@sprintfPython) reported@Azure its been 3 years of ai and you cant even make yourself a cloud ai mcp and @satyanadella keeps talking about ai slop everywhere, first do your work then you can slop to others, i stuck with your azure errors from 24 hrs **** vibe coding BS
-
MergenChat (@mergenchat) reported@Azure gpt-image-2 image editing is not working through your api. generating is working fine though.
-
Gman (@gmaniac) reported@satyanadella maybe you can put it to work and fix deploying to @Azure from @github 🧠
-
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
-
Nicolas Dorier (@NicolasDorier) reported@VisualStudio @Azure It is so impossible to figure out what it is, and stuck in a AI driven loop of AI support slop that I have no choice but to cancel the whole Azure account, and block at the bank level...
-
Jon Olson (@jonolson_) reported@Azure is borderline nightmare trying to set up a batch job with simple docker image. OpenAI and Claude Opus both on max effort could not accurately help me. Gemini 3 worked well but here is the list of funny responses from Gemini: <thread>
-
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?
-
Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@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.

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
