MICROSOFT is the worst customer support!

Going into day 5 of being locked out of hotmail account. My primary email for twenty years! Because they can't confirm who I am with the answers I provided? Cannot get anyone on a phone? They are the worst!!!!

Customer support for almost everything today su#ks and getting a pleasant English speaking support person on the phone is like winning the lottery. AAA we needed today and that was the exception, but when your looking for road assistance, you would hope that is more immediate.

I was starting to wonder if my self proclaimed right leaning views had gotten me censored by one of the left leaning high tech companies..... It is crazy that it has happened, and is happening, even to Trump!

If you aren't actively spreading conspiracy on public forums you won't get locked down. It is likely something else.

I am curious which demonstrably false and incendiary information Ross was spreading on the Internet.

It was probably just that your recently departed-from-D.C. buddy's Russian friends hacked him . Hopefully, Ross finds out the story. Socialism at its best? It is a private company

I can’t see Ross as an internet rebel Microsoft needs to cancel, I’m betting on someone hacking his account.

Always consider it might not be a big brother conspiracy versus a mistake or technical glitch.

Sounds like a possible Hacker used your account , seems they are locking you out based on your IP address? Even credit card companies won’t even tell you the addresses of packages purchased fraudulently on your credit card

That was an entertaining thread, though a sad state of affairs. Good luck Ross. I agree with the harvesting/political keyword thing. Signed, retired CTO.

Have at it, Ian. I don't have the technology nor the interest to play in the Twitter arena.

That blows Ross, it’s one of the main reasons I try extremely hard never to get into political debates on Facebook, that would suck to loose emails especially business contacts.

We could play the “what’s the creepiest thing Ross did to get banned by Microsoft” game ... wait ... actually ... that’s a bad idea.
