Delete Teams account
I created a free Teams account and want to delete it. I have subscribed to a Business Basics account and want to delete my free account

I tried doing this but can’t sign in because it says it’s not a work account

I am guessing you didn't set up a Teams free organization managing your own tenant and with teams in it?
You probably used a personal Microsoft account and signed into the Teams app?

Depending on option 1 or 2 the deletion method differs and in my first response you have the guidance as well.

- AStarr1410Jun 16, 2021Copper ContributorIn your original reply I have the option I can’t use because it’s not a work account and a way to cancel my Microsoft account altogether. I don’t want either of these??
- Jun 16, 2021Please describe in detail how you started to use Teams. Step-by-step.
- AStarr1410Jun 16, 2021Copper ContributorAs you described in the second reply - I used a personal account to create a free business Teams client.
