Lost Access to Authenticator

Hi All, 

Please help, I'm the only one who has the admin privilege of Office365-E1 but since I lost my Mobile phone (which has the MS Authenticator installed), I cannot access to my account, and the stupid thing is I haven't enroll my mobile phone number as my authenticator method.

 

Please someone help

 

Thank you

Rolan 

  • Hi RolanLubis,

    Do you perhaps have a CSP partner that provides you with the licenses? If yes, they should be able to restore access to your account. If not, I would suggest you contact Microsoft by phone to verify the ownership of a tenant: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/get-help-support?redirectSourcePath=%252fen-us%252farticle%252fContact-support-for-business-products-Admin-Help-32A17CA7-6FA0-4870-8A8D-E25BA4CCFD4B&view=o365-worldwide

      Hi BilalelHadd ,

       

      Thank you for you helpful advised.

       

      What I've done was contacting the partner and asked them to raise a Microsoft incident ticket related my issue and then 15-20 minutes later the Partner informed me to try again to login and setting the Authenticator. All good now...

       

      Thanks again BilalelHadd
