At first I noticed I was signed out of iTunes match and now I cannot login into icloud.com to check my mail, calendar ect.. I receive a "icloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server"

I have tried from two locations.. no dice..

Anyone else ?

I just tried check my email from iCloud.com. The website is much slower than normal. I was able to login but got error about not being able to send verification code even though I did receive one on my iPhone, but was not able to enter it in. Something is brewing...
 
Yes, at my office, when trying to access iCloud.com we all are receiving

"Connection Error
iCloud encountered an error while trying to contact the server."

We receive verification errors when trying to access services on our phones.
 
I thought it was just me that was having a problem. First, all of my accounts went down then it was just my iCloud account. I went to play a Game Center game and couldn't log in without being disconnected.
 
I just got done chatting with support, told him I couldn't check my email on my phone because iCloud was unavailable. The guy told me that the "System Status" page didn't show any issues. I then told him I couldn't sign in on my computer either. A few minutes later he responded that he was learning of some current issues with iCloud, and that they are working on fixing them. He recommended checking again in an hour.

This started at 10:54am EST, as that was the last time my email updated.

Just sat down to watch a movie on my Apple TV. Ha what was I thinking.... No connection to server.
 
Every time I consider making iCloud my primary email, an outage occurs. I want to move away from Gmail, but with the addition of their new photos app and the fact that I don't ever remember more than one outage makes me pause.
 
Yes, it's down. People are reporting on Twitter and 9to5 Mac has reported its outage as well. But of course the Apple site's services pages is all green. What's the point of that page if it's always lying?
 
Great.. I cannot login to ANYTHING, even their 2-factor verification broke:

1). iCloud.com
"There was an error sending the code"

2). Game Center
"The operation couldn't be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -1001)"

3). Mail
Pretty much broke

It is unacceptable for Apple to have this issue in such a widespread manner (2FA?? Really?!) and posting "bogus" status page.
 
Apple Status page is annoying, whenever I have trouble with any other service (e.g. Netflix, Xbox) their status pages reflect that there's a problem.

I love Apple but hate how they don't acknowledge problems.
