I want to remove an organization listed in my switch account window... the only option is to set up. when I click the You are invited to join an org. If you trust this org, click continue to accept the invitation. I clicked the manage account link to remove using the account org mene... but, no option to decline, remove or block. I have signed out and signed back in and same org still appears. This is a personal new teams application. The org is unknown. I want to remove it.

    Hello Beth Romski, thanks for posting this in the community.

    You’re seeing an “invited to join an org” message in Microsoft Teams (personal version), and the organization appears in the Switch account window. There’s no visible option to decline, remove, or block the invitation, and signing out/in doesn’t help.

    To resolve this, go to https://account.microsoft.com/organizations and sign in with the same Microsoft account used in Teams. Check if there are any organizations listed under “Organizations you belong to” or “Pending invitations.” If you see the unknown organization, select “Leave” to remove it. If there’s a pending invitation, choose “Decline.”

    Kind regards,

    John Oli

    To remove an invitation to join an organization in Microsoft Teams, you may need to manage your account settings. If you cannot find an option to decline or remove the invitation directly in the Teams application, consider the following steps:

    1. Sign in to the Microsoft 365 admin center (if you have admin access) or go to the Microsoft account portal.
    2. Navigate to Your info or Manage account settings.
    3. Look for any settings related to organizations or external accounts.
    4. If the organization is listed, there may be an option to remove or decline the invitation.
    5. If you lack admin access, you might need to contact the administrator of the organization for help.
    6. Alternatively, you can wait for the invitation to expire, as these invitations usually have a limited validity period.

    If the organization still appears after signing out and back in, it could be due to cached settings. Clearing the Teams app cache or reinstalling the app might also help resolve the issue.
