Microsoft acknowledged the issue and cited that they were investigating the issue regarding the delay in receiving texts within Teams app.

“We’re investigating an issue in which users located in North America may be experiencing delays when receiving chat messages within Microsoft Teams,” Microsoft 365 Status posted in a tweet.

The Microsoft Windows 365 Status team further cited the Teams live events to be impacted by this issue in South America and asked users to check for additional information in the admin center under TM240228.

As seen on Downdetector website, the issue still pertains, especially with server connections. And while the Redmond-based company has acknowledged the problem, it will be cumbersome for users who heavily rely on the app for remote work, conference, or online classes given Microsoft hasn’t come up with a solution to resolve the issue yet.
