We've had half a dozen calls in the last half hour from several clients advising they are not receiving emails in Outlook, but are on their mobile. Clients advise Outlook says it is connected, but I have not seem this myself.

We are currently invesigating.

Related to this perhaps? Seems to be a MS issue.

There were reports of the Admin center not working but haven't heard anything about Outlook so far.
I'm not having issues myself.

Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.

@RunningMan you may be correct. https://twitter.com/MSFT365Status says there have been admin portal issues this morning, but the issue may be wider than this.

Testing here by simply going to outlook.office.com fails on multiple devices on WiFi on a VodafoneNZ UFB connection. Can get to the site fine on Vodafone 4G and 2Degrees 4G.

Whoop whoop - Sounds like someone at Vodafone has acknowledged the issue and is looking at it. That's all I was looking for - I have had too many issues lately where everyone can see where the fault lies except for the place where the fault lies. Its a bit like addiction - Nothing can be resolved until the addict accepts they have an issue.
