An Azure subscription was transferred successfully to a different billing account. (A Microsoft Online Services Program to a Microsoft Customer Agreement) The subscription was successfully billed under the MCA, but is now being billed under the MOSP despite being disabled.

    Hi,

    I recommend you create a billing support request so you can discuss with billing support engineer and have them fix it. Billing support is free.

    Please carefully follow my instructions below to create billing support request and avoid getting stuck in endless loop. Please let me know if you run into any issues.

    1. Navigate to this link to start the process:

    https://portal.azure.com/#view/Microsoft_Azure_Support/HelpAndSupportBlade/~/overview

    2. Click Create a support request button at top

    3. If you see Support AI Assistant as shown below, click Switch to old experience button on right. If not, proceed to step #4

    6. Select your subscription from the dropdown and click Next

    7. At this point there will be a delay of several seconds, and then various options will be displayed. Click Create a support request button at the top. Do not click any of the other options.

    8. Fill out screen, Summary, Problem type, Problem subtype, then click Next button at bottom.

    9. There will be another several second delay, and then some solutions will be displayed (this is similar to above). DO NOT CLICK any of the solutions, instead click on Return to support request button in upper left corner, similar to below

    10. Now you are back at support case. Click Next button at bottom to continue to Additional details tab. Fill out information as required. Click Next to advance to Review + create tab, then click Create.

    You should receive an automated email within a few minutes and then be contacted by support within 1 business day.

    Thanks.
