Can't purchase Microsoft 365 Business Basic - Have to contact my admin?

Question

I'm trying to purchase Microsoft 365 Business Basic and move my email here, but it says my account is managed by my organization.  I'm a one-man show, so the company is mine and I'm the admin, but my account doesn't have admin access.  I have a feeling I setup something a couple years ago to check out Office365 that is messing me up.  Again, I'm the only user and I would have used the same email address for my account back then that I'm logging in with now.  I've only ever used this one email address.  My company doesn't have an active paid subscription and probably only ever had a free one that I was checking out a good while ago.  I have no idea how to contact anyone at Microsoft to resolve this.
