Good morning,

For some reason my hotmail account (************@hotmail.com) is locked out and I'm unable to log back in. I went through the recovery steps and still won't let me. Please assist. This is my account and I can't get in.

Please do not send me the link to recover as it doesn't work for me. My cell number is currently not active as I am out of the country (Canada) and I answered the questions correctly but it won't work. My password hasn't changed in years and I don't know why it still won't let me in.

Please assist.

You can contact me at this address- ****************@endonetworks.com or gmail ***********@gmail.com

    I'm constantly (almost daily) unable to log in to my Hotmail/Outlook email account despite using the correct password. Microsoft has asked me to reset my password numerous times and have done so. (Five times in last nine days.) Often wondering why? Yet, often immediately after resetting the password and within a minute or two, I attempted to log in with new password and received the error message "Too many requests." This is not a problem on my end since I have various security software. Microsoft has among other excuses stated it's a virus problem. It's not! Not only do I have an anti-virus program installed, I also have a screenshot of Microsoft diagnostics stating there are no issues.

    Now if as Microsoft has also suggested that supposedly someone is trying to access my account numerous times with the wrong password. Why is that my problem? Why is this issue, not resolved when I change my password?

    I believe this is a MICROSOFT PROBLEM!!

    Perhaps because I constantly block numerous spam/phishing email messages from addresses that more than likely Microsoft sells or provides to certain interests.

    Of course, you can never speak or get direct help from anyone at Microsoft to resolve whatever is creating these issues.

    This is ridiculous! I've had this email address for a long time (decades) and only over the past year or two have I encountered these type of frequent problems!

    7/20-Now, Access DENIED error message is received when trying to contact Microsoft "support."

    This is ridiculous! These corporations need to be held accountable, monopolies (little competition, less than 5-10 companies) broken up, and current laws/regulations need to be enforced along with further regulations to help the consumer. Welcome to the Corporate States of America!

    7/23 Same constant problem with absolutely no help or solution(s) from Microsoft!

    This is a MICROSOFT/Outlook problem!! F&*% Microsoft!

    Time to stand up People and stop accepting this BS!

    I can't open my email ******@hotmail.com. I was able to get into it May 21, 2024, but today it said there was suspicious activity and wouldn't let me in, using my usual email address and password. I tried setting up a separate account, but it still won't let me into my original email account.

    One of the problems is that the phone number on my account is a residential phone line (309-697-2597) which doesn't receive text messages. I have a cell phone that does receive them (309-369-0083) but I don't know how to switch those phone numbers on my account.

    I can’t sign in because of too many wrong attempts to sign into my account, the email address is ******@outlook.com

    It won’t let me sign in. I did try resetting the password but still no luck signing in just says it’s locked because of too many failed attempts.

    Microsoft,... Is this your way of trying to get your faithful old-timers to buy Microsoft 365? I've had a Hotmail account since Hotmail was born and have been very happy with it until now, since out of nowhere I can't even get into it, Outrageous. Shame on you.
