The outage started at around 7pm UK time and has meant many players have been unable to chat with friends while playing online.

The current error message being displayed while trying to use party function "801901f7" occurs when you try to renew your Xbox Live Gold subscription, according to the official Microsoft website.

The related help article is connected to changing your billing address and subscription details, rendering it useless for those currently affected.
