"Teams Announcement Service"?

Today, a mysterious "Teams Announcement Service" appeared at my Teams chat tab. I can't find a reference to it in any Microsoft document. A screenshot is attached. What is this thing?

  • IIRC this is usually call-related (a co-worked had it pop up after a failed international call), and can safely be ignored.

      VasilMichev I had it pop up after a failed 800 number call.  Appears Teams doesn't like vanity 800 numbers with more digits than it is supposed to have.  

  • Hi, can’t say for sure but you can make announcements in Teams so perhaps the bot message is related to that feature (haven’t used it myself). Reach out to your IT admin to verify.
