Microsoft’s Outlook.com Email Seems To Be Having Issues

I have received two calls today about people having issues with Outlook.com email accounts (which can be also hotmail.com). Here’s what they are reporting:

  • Outlook on iPhone is making users sign in.
  • You go through the steps to sign in and you still get a prompt to sign in.
  • Removing and re-adding the account does not fix this. Mi

I’ve been able to replicate this myself.

This issue seems to be widespread based on Down Detector which has similar reports of this issue. Microsoft’s Service Status page as well as on Twitter confirm this as well:

Thus it is safe to say that Microsoft has an issue that it is trying to wrap its hands around. There does not appear to be an ETA to resolution. Thus users of Outlook.com will have to wait it out until Microsoft fixes this.
