  @bravetofu_ @Outlook @Microsoft Absolutely ridiculous that finding confirmation it's actually down and not just a 'me' issue. Apart for not getting into important apps etc the constant notifications from Microsoft to enter my credentials every few minutes is doing my head in!

  @Outlook I can't get into my hotmail account. It keeps asking for me to authenticate, have tried to reset my password and just keeps asking me to sign in again. It seems like this is a widespread problem but no official word from Microsoft/Outlook? Is there a fix time on this?

  @Outlook every single time I try and log into my email account, I get a message saying ‘too many requests’ and then I’m kicked out. I rely heavily on my emails for work. Please can you sort this out? I’ve had endless problems with you as an email provider lately, you’re a joke.
