Global Admin resigned leaving

Copper Contributor

Good afternoon,

 

The person in our company who accessed and monitored the Global Admin of our Office 365 account resigned and we have been unable to contact him since.  He changed out 2 other Global Admins to User Admin and Global Reader, leaving us with no way to set a new Global Admin to our account.  Any suggestions on how we can fix this issue?

 

Thanks much for any input!

@Scott3128 You probably have to call the support, there is no other option AFAIK because the user admin can't reset passwords from admin accounts.
