Remove Power BI free from Tenancy

Hi,

 

Any Idea how to remove the license for Powerbi free? we've already turned off the adhoc subscriptions used:

https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/ability-to-disable-free-sign-ups-for-the-free-power-bi/

but one of our tenants doesn't want to see the license on their O365 admin center / completely turn off the service. please see image below:

Please advise

 

Thanks

  • Hi daniele08,

     

    I have tested it on my local environemnt, we have an Office 365 E5 subscription, if we add a user with Power BI free license. And login on Power BI services using that user, then Power Power BI free license will show up as your screenshot described. And based on my research, there is no an option to remove this free license. Thank you for your understanding.

     

    Regards,

      Well, in that case, how do I delete my Azure AD tenant linked to it?

        I'm having the same issue. I would like to delete an Azure AD tenant, which has a Power BI (free) license. The deletion is blocked because I didn't remove all subscriptions, but I can't remove the Power BI license even though it is not assigned to any user...

      Hello v-caliao-msft

       

      Same issue with Djeramon and saketkarnik. I also have one support ticket opened a couple days ago but there is no reponse yet.

       

      Is there a way to delete the AD for now? I have serveral projects will be impact by this soon.
