As a Microsoft partner I shouldn't have to write a one star review but the support in South Africa from Microsoft is aweful. Their whole strategy of removing themselves from local countries and then trying to support those countries is not sustainable. Their phones cannot call our numbers properly so when I bring a problem to Microsoft they revert to bring their own problems back to me. Extremely frustrating on top of working for free for Microsoft. They really have revolutionised modern day slavery and shown a whole new way of providing less than acceptable service on the back of saving money.

My microsoft account was hacked. I reported it to Microsoft. I used the recovery form with all the correct information to recover my account but they didn't even respond. A few days later I saw the account must have been deleted so I created a new account with all the same information as my old one but all data was missing. I've begged for them to recover the information but nothing. Microsoft is an absolute failure and couldn't give a damn about their customers. They have zero interest in customers security or information being used by *****ulent activity. Don't even get me stated on trying to get hold of an agent as clearly no one works at Microsoft in South Africa.

Microsoft Store – No Support for Refunds on Online Purchases I purchased an Xbox game from the Microsoft Store in good faith, only to discover it does not work on my PC despite being listed as available in my region. I requested a refund within two hours, yet received no response. The online refund system loops endlessly and provides no resolution. The lack of support after payment is deeply disappointing and unacceptable. @Microsoft @Xbox @XboxSupport

I am extremely disappointed with Microsoft. After more than eight years as a paying customer, my account was suddenly locked behind a “parental guidance” restriction that I never activated. Since then, I have been completely unable to access my own account. I have contacted Microsoft support every single day, opened multiple cases, and followed every instruction they sent, yet nothing has been resolved. The support responses have been generic and unhelpful, and no one has taken ownership of the issue or escalated it properly. I am still locked out of my account, and the lack of accountability from a company of this size is unacceptable. I expected far better treatment as a long-standing customer. This experience has shown how weak Microsoft’s support system can be when something goes wrong.
