deleting teams organization
Hi there Laurie Pottmeyer thanks for your reply.
Although we do not use Azure AD. We are using the free Teams.
niovic Someone who is an admin needs to make you an admin so you can delete teams. Here's how to do that: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/delete-your-teams-free-organization-2c28cfcf-3fbf-497c-938f-8815a8f6a6b9
There is more documentation here for the free version of Teams but your first step is figuring out who the current admin is and having them make you an admin: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/welcome-to-microsoft-teams-free-6d79a648-6913-4696-9237-ed13de64ae3c?ui=en-us&rs=en-us&ad=us

The problem is that none of the members are admin thus no one can delete the organization created, or make an admin someone else.- laurie pottmeyerMay 21, 2020Copper ContributorGot it.
Here are instructions on applying a new owner to an orphaned team: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/assign-a-new-owner-to-an-orphaned-group-86bb3db6-8857-45d1-95c8-f6d540e45732
Here is someone who had a similar issue as you using Free Teams: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/how-to-delete-a-team-without-owner-in-microsoft/a7b06619-6142-4ef4-9649-a55ba7de672d
Hopefully one of those two links points you in the right direction.
