.@Microsoft @Outlook You shut my email address down with no valid reason why. Now I can't order an identical SIM card for the phone I just lost because everything is connected to that email, the email I had with you for over 10 years that you have locked me out of for no reason.

@GOTORONIWOOD @Outlook This isn't just a glitch it's a betrayal of trust. While Microsoft gives canned responses, @AJTheTech actually digs into these cases. Many have recovered data through him after similar nightmares

@Outlook you guys need to fix the new desktop outlook. You want to force us to use something that needs a lot of work. This is basically the web outlook, which in itself is trash.

@Outlook why is my email still locked even after I have filled out the forms twice. Is a crime that I opened an email for very important matters? What kind of problem is this????

@TeachREEthics @Outlook I've got the same problem. Did I say something wrong? It's like they cut you off for thinking or something? I bought a subscription to overcome the Onedrive extortion for more storage and they can't make it work.

@Outlook Microsoft Outlook is such a great tool used by so many. Not sure why you guys are messing it up with the "new" Outlook. That experience is so slow... I've tried to go a couple of times now and keep on going back to the "older" Outlook.
