Two accounts, same email, can only access one
I'm having a weird issue in Teams. An organisation I contract for made me a guest account on their Teams channel using my email address. Then, my employer made an actual 365 account for me an...
When you're automatically signed in surely you have the option to manually sign out from Teams? (top right corner). That should open up the prompt again. I assume this is happening on your desktop Teams and not using Teams on the web too. You should open up a InPrivate / Incognito window and go to https://teams.microsoft.com and verify the behavior. You can always (almost) leave another org. if you're a guest user there https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/user-help/my-account-portal-organizations-page#view-your-organizations

ChristianJBergstrom of course I can sign out, but that does not help anything.
Even sigining in on a completely new browser profile I get redirected to the single-sign-on-page of the customer immediately, because my mail adress is linked to that customer on microsoft site. So as soon as I login (does not matter what client I use) I always get moved to the customer. No chance of accessing the teams spaces of my own company.
To me it seems that on Microsoft site your email adress can only be assigned to one teams space - and the last one wins.
- Please follow the above suggestions.
- Sorry - didn't see the bit about leaving an organisation. So now I am in one organisation (my own) - I guess there is no way of being in both and just dynamically switch between them (btw: no I am not using the desktop client at all - and additionally I am using teams on linux) In fact I am part of 4 Teams spaces, but I can separate three of them by using different browser profiles and different Mailadresses. the one above was the one where I couldn't do that.
- Yes, and you cannot leave your own organisation of course, because MS won't let you... 🙃
Good grief, MS verification and logins is basically Dante's Seventh Circle Of Hell, designed by jabby little devils.
I feel to commit violence after travelling in circles since July.
If you're an entrepreneur, don't ever try and have multiple MS accounts for your different businesses, MS simply cannot cope.
One should easily be able to toggle between any number of accounts in Teams just like you can for different user accounts on your laptop, and yet it appears to be impossible.
