All Microsoft services are facing some kind of outage and frustrating users.
The massive outage has left thousands without to access their Microsoft Outlook and Hotmail email accounts causing havoc.
Not only Microsofts email servers were affected, the Skype callers are reporting separate problems logging in.
Ditto for Xbox gamers.
The issue was first reported at around 12:00 GMT (7am ET).
Something went wrong The server cant sign you in right now.
like give it another spin later, the issue notification on the page reads.
Also, many Xbox players couldnt access their Xbox Live accounts.
Both these services are run by Microsoft.
The problem gives the impression of affecting those with Microsoft accounts across the world.
However, problems with these services arent as widespread.
Issues have been reported throughout Europe and the U.S. Microsoft Outlook has stopped working.

Hope to get his fixed asap!
However, one user said on Twitter that Microsoft said it is working on resolving the issue.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
We know about the issue and are currently working on the resolution.
Request you try and login again after a few hours, the firm said, albeit vaguely.
Microsoft has not yet commented on the massive outage its services are facing.
