  4. After the Direct Routing number is unassigned, remove the online voice routing policy associated with your user by running the following Teams PowerShell Module command:

    Grant-CsOnlineVoiceRoutingPolicy -Identity <user> -PolicyName $Null

Service numbers

In addition to getting phone numbers for your users, you can also get service numbers including toll or toll-free phone numbers for services such as Auto attendants and Call queues. Service phone numbers have a higher concurrent calling capacity than user or subscriber phone numbers. For example, a service number can handle hundreds of calls simultaneously, whereas a user's phone number can only handle a few calls simultaneously. To get service numbers in India, contact your operator.

Manage your operators

From the My operators tab, you can view your operators and their status, and make the following changes to your selections:

  • Manage operator services by country
  • Suspend an operator

Before removing an operator from your organization or from a country, you must remove all phone numbers assigned to users in the organization or country, and contact the operator to release the numbers.

Release numbers

To release phone numbers from the Teams admin center, go to the Phone numbers page and select a number.

  • If the phone number isn't assigned to a user, select Release.

  • If the phone number is assigned to a user, unassign the number. Select Edit, then Remove user. After you save your changes, select Release.
