We have a sponsored subscription (given to NGOs), but it was recently blocked and Microsoft gave us a deadline to solve the problem and get everything back to normal. Lock details:
• Details of the Block placed: Subscription Level Deny Assignment Block
• Details of the Block placed: Block New Resource Creation (BNRC) Block
• Details of the Block placed: Tenant Level Deny Assignment Block
• Details of the Block placed: Subscription Level Deny Assignment Block Description: Subscription Termination in violation of the Microsoft Online Services Acceptable Use Policy.

    Hi @PauloKennedy-7446,

    Microsoft detected some use or behavior that violated their Acceptable Use Policy — even if unintentionally.

    1.Microsoft should have sent a case ID and a list of suspected violations to admin account. Please check

    2. Open a Microsoft Support Request immediately and request clarification regarding the violation and wish to remedy the situation urgently to restore the subscription.

    1. If you unknowingly violated a rule, acknowledge and commit to compliance.

    4.Stop Any Suspected Activities Immediately if any

    5. Request Re-evaluation: Ask Microsoft for a second review after cleaning things up. They often lift blocks after verifying honest mistakes by NGOs.

    Note: If you do nothing, your entire tenant/subscription will be TERMINATED permanently after the deadline. You will lose all your Azure resources, data, services, identities, licenses. Time is critical.
