Teams Chat Error - "Administrator has disabled chats for this user",

Copper Contributor

Hello,

 

I am getting this message when attempting to start an individual chat in Teams - "Administrator has disabled chats for this user". I am set in Island mode as well. Is there some other setting I am not seeing?

 

Thanks,
Scott

This is an error that randomly occurs. Restarting Teams is a temporary fix.

Has anyone found a permanent fix for this? 

 

Users affected on my end are mainly mobile users, but only a few.

My school has the same problem when we are creating classes through Classera it's showing the same massage to student they cannot send any msg only teacher we are in Saudi Arabia. Is there any solution for this??????? @Christopher Hoard

The same thing has happened to me but the chat icon is gone

I need to move students to another team. I accidentally sent them to the wrong team. So I tagged them  to be moved,, but I coudn't send them the new team code because I got the message "Admin. has disabled chat for 1 or more members" BUT I am the admin.

SO what should I do?
