Is it not possible to do this? Seems like i keep running into limitations.

Also I didn’t realize Microsoft was using Godaddy as a domain registrar. Had I know it, I would have bought outside Godaddy due to Godaddy’s desire to redirect everything to secureserver.net

What should I do to accomplish this? I just want to build a website, host it on Azure and then still be able to maintain an Office 365 admin account with Azure, Exchange Online, Global Admin controls.

    This was resolved by Azure support. I canceled domain, Azure support sync changes and I was able to buy new domain in correct azure account. This required Azure Support’s help over 3 days to figure out they needed to sync the changes. Microsoft needs to address this issue. We need a better way to migrate or move domains between azure accounts.

    I have similar setup in my lab, but domain is purchased from other place. What problem you are experiencing exactly?

    Hi @Chris ,
    You may migrate your Go Daddy Office 365 to Microsoft. There are couple of web references. I see the following one is a better one you can follow
