Microsoft Multi factor auth down worldwide
-
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/status/
Summary of Impact: Starting at 04:39 UTC on 19 Nov 2018 customers in Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Americas regions may experience difficulties signing into Azure resources, such as Azure Active Directory, when Multi-Factor Authentication is required by policy.
Investigation: Engineers have explored mitigating a back-end service via deploying a code hotfix, and this is currently being validated in a staging environment to verify before potential roll-out to production. Engineers are also continuing to explore additional workstreams to expedite mitigation.
Next Steps: Engineers will continue to validate the hotfix. The next update will be provided in 60 minutes, or as events warrant.

You don't. You sit and stew and think about the credit you're going to put in for when it comes back up.

So am I wrong in my thinking, anyone who uses MS's MFA auth service is unable to access any of there services?

Yeah, I can't get in to manage O365.
However, anything already authenticated like Outlook on your PC or phone is still okay.

Just came on here to check as I cannot access my partner portal and, therefore, delegate admin accounts.

Unless your user has the 14 day cookie on their account, we have partial outage because of that.
