Sorry, there seems to be a problem with outlook at the moment

Hi, really need help - can't access my hotmail.co.uk email via laptop or mobile! My iPhone mail keeps saying error contact server and the laptop outlook is saying 'sorry there seems to be a problem with outlook at the moment' - It lets me log into my other account (which I don't even need). Tried deleting my unwanted account and everything but still no access. Really need to access email as of 3 hours ago!! Please help
