Microsoft outage disrupts U.S. users, blocking access to Outlook, Teams, and 365 services, echoing prior issues.

Several Microsoft services are down amid a US-wide outage affecting tens of thousands of Americans.

The issue appeared to start around 7.50am ET Thursday as many on the East Coast started their work day.

Microsoft said it was ‘investigating an issue where users may be unable to access’ multiple 365 services such as email and Teams.

Microsoft has yet to provide any details about the cause of the outage or when services will be back online.

But its Azure cloud platform said on X, formerly Twitter, that it was investigating customer reports of a potential issue connecting Microsoft’s services from AT&T networks.

As of 10 am ET, more than 90,000 users have reported outages to Downdetector, a site that tracks online service outages.

But this is probably an underestimate, as not every affected user may have submitted a report.
