Unable to register for Microsoft Teams
Hi, I'm redirected to you by Microsoft Support Belgium. I'm trying to register for Microsoft Teams on https://products.office.com/microsoft-teams using my account, mailto:alain.baudhuin@skynet.be ...
- Hi AlainBaudhuin,
The domain skynet.be looks to be registered to Proximus nv/sa and directs to their site. Does this company provide you with your service?
To note, that Teams is coming for Family subscriptions soon
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/blog/2020/03/30/introducing-new-microsoft-365-personal-family-subscriptions/
So my recommendation is
1.) Wait for Microsoft Teams to be added to Family 365 subscriptions in the coming months
2.) If you want a free Microsoft Teams account sign up with another address such as an Outlook.com address
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris

Hi,
Thanks for your answer. Teams being added to family subscription is great news indeed. Nevertheless, I'm still worried about my account to be considered an "education" account (which it is not).
skynet.be is indeed a domain by Proximus, which is my internet service provider. Nevertheless, Proximus is a general Telco operator, and has nothing to do with Education, nor with my Microsoft account.
Why would anyone consider that the skynet.be domain makes my account an education account ?
Thanks for your clarifications !
Alain.
