Microsoft 365 Faces Outage: Outlook and Teams Hit by Issues

Microsoft 365 users faced unexpected disruptions this morning, with many unable to access core services like Outlook and Microsoft Teams.

The platform "Down For Everyone or Just Me" also confirmed problems, citing issues with Outlook starting two hours ago and disruptions with Microsoft 365 beginning about 40 minutes prior. Users attempting to access Outlook encountered an error message stating, “Your request can’t be completed right now.”

Microsoft Responds

In a statement on X (formerly Twitter), Microsoft acknowledged the issue, saying, “We're investigating an issue impacting users attempting to access Exchange Online or functionality within Microsoft Teams calendar. For more information, please refer to MO941162 in the admin centre.”

What’s Affected?

Key services currently impacted include:

  • Outlook: Users are unable to send or receive emails.
  • Microsoft Teams: Calendar functions appear to be disrupted, limiting scheduling capabilities.

Downdetector Insights

Downdetector reports spikes in outage complaints when user issues exceed normal levels, confirming the widespread nature of this incident.
