Downgrade it as follows:
Before you proceed make sure Apples is still verifying the iOS 7.1.2 update. Failure to do so will lead to an annoying restore to iOS 8 and a waste of your time.
1. Download the iOS 7.1.2 ipsw for your device
2. Plug your iPhone into a computer and open iTunes.
3. In iTunes click on the iPhone option in the upper right. If you see the Restore and Upgrade options you are on the right screen.
5. Special Click on Restore iPhone. A special click involves holding a key while you left click.
·Hold alt/option on Mac when you click Restore iPhone...
·On Windows, hold Shift when you click Restore iPhone...
Do not try the Check for Update option.
6. Find the ios 7.1.2 download and click on the .ipsw file.

Have you tried to access your account from another non ios8 device? If you havnt, try that. Its probably an interface issue between ios8 and hotmail.

Upgraded my iPad 2, from iOS 7.0 to 8.0, and it now crashes and freezes up.

That's because it's simply not powerful enough to handle ios8. I know apple gave the update but unless they give a new bug fixing update to fix the crashing, your stuck with ios8 and a crashing iPad.
I have my iPad 2 with ios7 and I'm not planning to update it.

Since the new update, my iPad screen freezes and won't allow me to open the call. If I make the call, it won't allow me to end the call

If you updated to IOS8.1 then it's got a glitch in it.
You need to go back to your last restore (if you saved it) or update but to IOS8 (Not IOS8.01)

Jailbreak download

Dont Jailbreak the iPad. Wait for IOS8.... it's nearly here.
There will be a lot more configurability in IOS8.
If you want to fiddle with the OS innards then get an Android OS device. It's easier to customise if thats what your after.

Apple keeps a closed environment to keep hackers and security breaches to a minimum because that is what people want and expect on an expensive device.
