Gmail down: Hundreds of email users report issues with service across UK

Hundreds of Gmail users have reported issues with the service having gone down this afternoon in the UK.

Downdetector shows an outage across the country on the Google-owned platform, with 356 people registering an issue as of just after 2pm.

Much of the problems seem to stem from receiving mail, which stands at 77% of the reports.

19% relate to sending and 4% are due to server connection.

A heat map shows the main hotspots being in London, Manchester and Cambridge.

There also appears to be issues for users worldwide.

According to the reporting site: "Downdetector only reports an incident when the number of problem reports is significantly higher than the typical volume for that time of day."

Another person said: "Yoo hoo please fix the problem, can't receive messages."

A third said: "For some reason I am not getting emails from other G-mail accounts just outside sources. Why is this happening?"

And a fourth: "Gmail is down from France to USA worldwide can’t receive messages."
