Personal Teams Account - Cannot Create or Join Teams (Office 365 Subscriber)
I just left a company that used Teams, and no longer have access. However, I appreciated the functionality, and still need Teams access to be able to join other Teams for collaboration or create my own. As such, I signed up for an Office 365 account this week. However, when I sign into Teams with this account, I have no option to create a team or join someone else's team. The only options are Activity, Chat, and Calendar. Even utilizing a link from a collaborator to join their Team does nothing.
Is there a step that I am missing? I have read on multiple other sites and they all seem to point to restricted access. However, since this is a personal account, unrelated to any business, I do not see how this could be the case for me.
Any insights on how to fix this or how to join my clients' Teams?
JamieNickerson Teams for personal life is limited when it comes to the business features. When you have been invited as a guest/added to a team you need to use the "tenant switcher" in the top right corner to enter that organization.

Thank you. Every time I tried to use the link to join a Team, it was not adding them to my list, even as a guest. I'm still having the issue with my desktop app, but I was able to access it via the web app today. I will try and delete my desktop app and try again. I appreciate the response.
