According to the online outage tracker, several thousand users have complained – which means the issue is likely to be very large

In fact, 54% of the notifications that the page attracted this Wednesday are complaints about the Gmail email reception service. At the moment the official Twitter account of Google Spain has not made any statement about the situation.

Spanish users have also encountered this problem, although the failure is mainly affecting countries such as the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Greece and Poland.

And it’s not only Europe that has been affected with users in the United States having the same problems.

Many people have said that the fault couldn’t have come at a worse time coinciding as it does with the health crisis caused by the coronavirus.
