I was the sole owner of my subscription and I mistakenly removed myself as the owner. It is a Pay-As-You-Go subscription, and I have no bills to pay on it. I'd just like to delete it. How do I do that? Is it possible?

    Hello Abhaykumar Mehta,

    Thanks for your question.

    If you remove the last owner role, you lose the ability to manage the subscription. However, if you have the Global Administrator role in the Entra tenant associated with that subscription you can elevate it.

    If this is not possible, you can further proceed to contact support to assist you via the global service numbers:
