USERS of Microsoft 365 services have been reporting issues with their services this morning.
The issues appear to have affected Microsoft Teams, Outlook, Store and 365.
User reports began to appear on Down Detector, a site for reporting online outages, at around 7am.
These reports cite the server connection as the main issue.
In a tweet, Microsoft confirmed it was aware of the issues and that it is being investigated.
Microsoft said: "We're investigating issues impacting multiple Microsoft 365 services. More info can be found in the admin center under MO502273."
It later added: "We've identified a potential networking issue and are reviewing telemetry to determine the next troubleshooting steps."
Users of the services rushed to Twitter to share the news of the outage.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
