Citizen of Realville (@JeffWhalen989) reported@Outlook @Microsoft Why does Microsoft make it increasingly difficult to sign in to check Outlook?? If you’re trying to make it “better”, you’re failing hard. I wish you could take your email address with you to a different provider like your phone number.

Brad (@blcdude1) reportedI’ve had awful luck with @outlook the past week. Every time I log in, I get told there have been too many failed attempts and I’m forced to reset my password. It makes the website feel very insecure, a major security issue.
-
NorthCarolinaTrader (@NCarolinaTrader) reportedIs it just me, or has @Outlook become an absolute pile of garbage that has us loathing Microsoft Corporation. Bad software has become absolute garbage. I open this junk, my accounts are no longer set up, then you need a PhD in computer science to fix the problem.

A R Pᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ (@altieri_palorca) reported@Outlook My case involves MAILBOX CORRUPTION, not deletion. I need this escalated to the engineering team. Only they can restore internal server snapshots. The attack happened yesterday — there is still time.

Brendan R. Appel (@AppelLaw) reported@Outlook - Just now received an email sent to me on January 22, 2026 at 5:37 p.m. It arrived 1/28/2026 at 10:08 a.m. You claimed to have "fixed" your issues on 1/22 - clearly that was a lie. You had ONE JOB....

Roni (@srijansen39) reported@Outlook @MicrosoftHelps Hi Microsoft/Outlook team, I recently created a Microsoft account and got an @outlook.com email by default. But every email I send to Gmail addresses lands in the recipient's Spam folder, so they never see it. This is causing major inconvenience— Fix this
