Fai (@faithedragon) reported@MicrosoftHelps @Outlook Not being able to drag and drop emails and attachments into SharePoint is a huge limitation for collaborators. Why can’t a trillion dollar company fix this?

Ali. Me (@AlisonWagstaff3) reported@Outlook I'm absolutely sick and tired of you. My email access has gone from eady and with no problems to waiting for access, also getting locked in having to restart my phone. It's an absolute pain I hate the ads which were bad enough on unfocused, but now on focused too

Suzanne Lanoue (she, her, hers) 🤎🧡🩷❤️💗💖💜💝💘 (@slanoue2016) reported@Outlook How do we get support from a live person? Nothing is working. My husband can get on his Hotmail account on his phone, but it's not working on any of our laptops. He doesn't have MS Authenticator set up, and it's confusing as to how to do that. When we ask to send a code to his phone, it never arrives. He's not sure about his password. When he tried it, it said he was locked out. He doesn't have a security key, etc. When we tried phoning for help, the automated thing just sends us back to the Web. Please help! This is maddening.

NEO_England (@NEO_England) reported@Outlook Dear Microsoft. I’m locked out of my personal email, my authentication on my phone is linked as recovery for my business email. I get a prompt to enter my mobile so I can get a text to be greeted with ‘it’s not working right now’. I have forgotten my password and have tried countless hours trying to get my personal email up and running… one course of action was encountering AI chat which was useless! I am at the end of my tether now as it’s been over a month of trying and as you can appreciate, it’s incredibly disruptive. I have some very important personal emails that I can’t now access! I can’t speak to a human so how can you remedy this?
