-
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.
-
deepak yadav (@yadavd4631) reportedHey @Azure @MicrosoftForStartups — your startup credit application asked for NOTHING except a verified LinkedIn. I gave it. Got rejected. No reason given. No next steps. Nothing. How is a founder supposed to fix something when you won't say what's wrong? #Azure #Microsoft
-
Vishal (@Vishhallu) reportedAnna University’s result server has been down for 16 hours straight Millions of students vs one sad little server. Maybe it’s time for an intervention? @AWSCloudIndia @Azure @digitalocean
-
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.

Fabien Snauwaert 🇫🇷🇺🇸 🇪🇸🇭🇺🇷🇺 (@fabiensnauwaert) reportedMy experience with @Azure: - Pay USD 123.58/mo for Postgres - Server gets stuck on restart. Cannot access it. Gotta contact support. - Pay $29 to contact support. But that's business hours only, and it's 2 AM. - Pay $100/mo to reach 24/7 support. - SLA is 1h. Get a response 2h later. - Request a refund. Get ignored for 13 days. - Escalate the ticket. - Receive 5 full-page apology emails, all expecting a response. - Server still not stable. - Upgrade to USD 218.48/mo. This is the kind of nonsense @levelsio warns about. Meanwhile, Hetzner would cost ~€40/mo.

Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reportedOne of the vendors we use who hook into @Azure @Microsoft365 are reporting that error 503 is being returned and @Microsoft have confirmed that there is a problem
-
Sergey Medved (@CyberSecBoss) reportedA story of applying for Startup credits. @Azure - great customer service, hassle-free. @awscloud - back and forth straight out rejections, "at our discretion" from the support, to finally learn that the issue is in spelling out address street name "North" instead of "N".
-
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.
-
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
-
deshmukh 🔗 💭 (@deshmukhpatelai) reported@curious_queue @Azure @OpenAIDevs azure is also probably the worst software on planet earth and this i say from personal trauma over a long period of time!
-
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.
-
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 !
-
Mouhab Tarek (@MouhabTarek) reportedFirst attempt: 2014. Graduation project. An @Xbox @kinect + @Azure remote rehab system — inspired by patients in Cairo who couldn’t reach physio clinics through the traffic. Microsoft noticed. Then my career took over. But the I never let go the idea.
-
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?
-
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
-
Jeremy 💻🎮🔭 (@pcnerd37) reportedWTF!!! I have an @Azure App Service Plan that went way past its supposed $69.35/mo plan, blew past my monthly budget and now I'm stuck with an astronomical cloud bill. I can't afford this when I'm unemployed!!! @AzureSupport
-
Jackartoons (@jackartoons) reportedSo disappointing to see @AWSstartups and its lack of support to startups unlike @Azure @AzureSupport who are helpful and accessible.
-
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>
-
Mile Brzanov (@milebrzanov) reported@Azure Fix your stuff! Defender for Cloud. Also, why we can't create support tickets while paying over 2K USD per month? #enshittification #microsoft
-
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.
-
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.
-
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
-
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.
-
Conor O'Neill (@conoro) reportedThinking about it, @Azure couldn't have picked a worse time to have a wide scale multi-hour OpenAI outage. Their whole "We're Enterprise" schtick really didn't hold up to scrutiny. And now we have options in Europe with AWS.
-
RajneesH Kumar (@rajneeshk_verma) reportedI have a active m365 developer account with that got access to azure portal, I missed to setup MFA now being tenant admin I am not able to login to azure portal, need MFA which is not setup🐔 🥚however m365 still working for me, any help greatly appreciated @AzureSupport @Azure
-
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 ?
-
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.
-
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?
-
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)
