    @Microsoft365 @Outlook Outlook is NOT WORKING on iPad IOS 14.7.1 Impossible to install ! It's crap !

  • john_moore John Moore (@john_moore) reported

    Thinking about the @Outlook working hours thing. I feel like I’d want the opposite…I want to mark the days I’m not working from home. I already mark my calendar on the days I happen to go into the office and color code an all day event.

  • AltinSelimi Rand Lahey (@AltinSelimi) reported

    @Outlook Nothing in that article is of help to me. The verification codes had no problem coming say a month ago. But now they don’t.

  • M_Z_Harrison Melissa Harrison (@M_Z_Harrison) reported

    @Outlook Hi. Is Outlook/Hotmail down? I'm getting a 401 message when I try to access my emails online.

  • lisa_jayne_b ⚫️Lisa Britton WearAMask GetTheJab 🇨🇾🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@lisa_jayne_b) reported

    @Outlook I have been coming to the same country for 20 years, 4 weeks each time. Never a problem, until now when you suddenly decide it’s an “unusual activity.” Why?

  • BarnesEmma0893 Emma Barnes (@BarnesEmma0893) reported

    @HIEastleigh hey guys thanx why is @Outlook not working my emails arent coming through

  • AmandaP52215108 Amanda Palmer (@AmandaP52215108) reported

    @ohchantelle @Facebook @Outlook Report this issue to Global_Recovery123 on Instagram. He's the Best I know to recover any hacked account. He recovered mine within 30 minutes.

  • TheJoeFin Joe Finney (@TheJoeFin) reported

    Hey @Outlook I know your spam filter is terrible, but maybe don't add flagged emails in my junk folder to my @MicrosoftToDo lists, seems like a no brainer to me. CC: @microsoftgraph

  • john_moore John Moore (@john_moore) reported

    @stevegoodman @Outlook Same, I’m way less available when in the office now. Sing in the office means I’m heads down in a lab doing stuff so I don’t look at IM or email until that evening.

  • NikkiClints Nikki Clinton (@NikkiClints) reported

    @Outlook Apologies. I spent 2 days and 14 hrs!!! on the phone with an agent rectifying the problems the previous agent created. I think we are finally almost there. Thank you.

  • flap10 Brick Top (@flap10) reported

    @Outlook need some assistance, I have Outlook 365 sub, nut when I log in online now my account is empty, no emails, received or sent. I do most of my work on my iMac and I'm not on a server, can you assist?

  • JournoJess97 Jess Sharp (@JournoJess97) reported

    @Outlook Can you help? My elderly grandmother is having problems logging into her email account & is getting quite stressed. I have tried calling contact support/using your website but not getting the help I need! She is visiting from Spain and needs access to her account ASAP

  • lisa_jayne_b ⚫️Lisa Britton WearAMask GetTheJab 🇨🇾🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@lisa_jayne_b) reported

    @Outlook But I’ve been going to this same country, this same city, twice a year for about the last twenty years! It’s never been a problem until this year, when you decided it was “unusual activity.” Why now?

  • alpal8123 aly (@alpal8123) reported

    @SusanWCockrell @OfficeInsider @Outlook Thank you Susan I have tried it, do they have any response time for blocking issues? I was not able to do appointments for more than 1 days span back then I have asked. TY again.

  • neutrinos__ Saketha Ramanujam (@neutrinos__) reported

    yo @Outlook can you help me figure out a weird sync issue between a connected account? I know it's a weekend but, plis, the earlier the better.

  • manojmatlani Manoj Matlani (@manojmatlani) reported from Mumbai Suburban, State of Mahārāshtra

    @Microsoft @Outlook Bunch of unprofessional who are just busy amongst themselves. My business account of Outlook was blocked on 2 SEP. Spoke to Shubham on 080 40103000 and was given a Complain no - 1027747276. Again called today and spoke to Pinky but issue still unresolved.

  • BlueWest18 Blue West (@BlueWest18) reported

    @Outlook Is there any way to stop getting the "Stay signed in? Stay signed in so you don't have to sign in again next time. Don't show this again" message every time I log into Hotmail?? It's an unnecessary step.

  • Im_tired_again Chris Martin (@Im_tired_again) reported

    @Outlook Hi can you assist me with my outlook account please or can I DM you? I’ve tried chat and my issue isn’t available

  • WAPTECSPRO1 WAPTECS (@WAPTECSPRO1) reported

  • alobbs Alvaro Lopez Ortega (@alobbs) reported

    Does anybody know how to use the CTRL + a/e (move to begin/end of line) shortcuts in @Outlook for Mac? — They work in any other app but outlook. It's starting to come a productivity issue and -admittedly- a source of frustration.

  • tapiwamandibaya Gwi (@tapiwamandibaya) reported

    @Outlook whats going on? Cant log in from app cant send or recieve. Should we move on? Im losing business. Im thinking gmail wouldn't let me down like this?

  • ISTenforTen humanBehavior&tech (@ISTenforTen) reported

    @NicoleBarbaro @Outlook If you are on MacOS there’s a bug that causes the search issues. There is a fix albeit tedious

  • JacobGAlvarez Jake A (@JacobGAlvarez) reported

    @Outlook PLEASE make it so declined meetings still show up on the calendar!! Erasing them to a deleted folder is a terrible function.

  • manojmatlani Manoj Matlani (@manojmatlani) reported from Mumbai Suburban, State of Mahārāshtra

    @satyanadella why nobody reverts from @Outlook . Even after my follow up to just connect to your call centre, waiting for minimum 20 mins per call it's frustrating to realise that it's extremely difficult to get in touch with a person who can solve my issue. Kindly help?

  • AltinSelimi Rand Lahey (@AltinSelimi) reported

    @Outlook can’t login to my outlook account because the app can’t send verification message to my mobile phone (+383). Help pls ?
