    Description:
    It's not just you - Slack isn't working for some users right now.

    FULL STORY ======================================================================

    We're getting reports that online collaboration platform Slack is seeing outages across the UK.

    Reports of issues with Slack began to surface around 10.00am BST, with thousands of users signalling problems on outage tracker site DownDetector .

    The company has yet to confirm there are problems, but we're following the story live, so stay tuned and read all our latest updates below... (Image credit: DownDetector)

    This morning's Slack outage appears to have come out of the blue, with a huge spike in alerts sent to DownDetector so far around 10.00am BST (Image credit: Slack)

    Despite the huge spike in outage alerts, Slack is saying there are no
    problems on its side - with the company's status page reporting no issues.

    We've contacted the company to get a comment, and will upload here when we receive anything. (Image credit: Slack)

    Scratch that - the page has just updated, with Slack now confirming there are some problems.

    "Something's not quite right," the company says in its error field for issues concerning "Messaging" - meaning users are unable to send and receive
    messages right now.
