Thank you, All the troubleshooting steps were carried out with the 2 escalation teams on two days for more or less 2hours each session, all this failed to provide a solution to the problem. the last resort as per the escalation team members is to join the community and see if i can get the solution. I am really shocked of the results of the trouble shooting and the recommendations by Micorsoft techs support, i think i will cancel my subscription with Microsoft due to this problem and their support. why should i pay for something that i cannot use. thank you for the help.

Hi @Mohamad ElHajj Mahmoud

Since this is a brand-new personal phone and the issue occurs in every Microsoft app, the phone may be automatically passing a saved work/school identity into the Microsoft sign-in window, even though you are trying to use a personal account.

Please open Settings > Passwords, passkeys & accounts on the Motorola phone and check whether the same email address, or any unfamiliar work/school account, appears there. If it does, remove that account temporarily, restart the phone, and try signing in again.

When the Microsoft app suggests an account, do not select the suggested entry. Instead, choose Use another account and manually type the same personal Microsoft account address

Also, check your subscription in a browser under account.microsoft.com/services. If Microsoft 365 Personal appears there, the subscription and personal account are valid, and the problem is more likely related to the Android account-selection or authentication session rather than the license itself.

If the phone copied settings from an older device during setup, also check whether the Microsoft apps were restored automatically. Uninstall one affected app, restart the phone, reinstall it directly from the regular Google Play Store, and test it before reinstalling the other Microsoft apps.

If the error remains, please share the exact error message and any code beginning with AADSTS, while removing the email address, request ID, correlation ID, and other personal information. The specific code can help determine whether the app is selecting the wrong account type or sending the personal account to an organization-only sign-in endpoint.

Thank you and have a nice day

Message: AADSTS500200: User account[RemovedPII]@outlook.com' is a personal Microsoft account. Personal Microsoft accounts are not supported for this application unless explicitly invited to an organization. Try signing out and signing back in with an organizational account.

Thank you Ian

Thank you for sharing the error. AADSTS500200 means the apps are incorrectly sending your personal Microsoft account to an organization-only sign-in flow. This is an authentication-session issue, not a problem with your Microsoft 365 Personal subscription.

On the phone, open Settings > Apps, select each affected Microsoft app, and choose Storage & cache > Clear storage and Clear cache. If Microsoft Authenticator or Intune Company Portal was restored from an older phone, temporarily uninstall it, and remove any unintended Work profile under Settings > Passwords, passkeys & accounts.

Next, clear cookies in Chrome, restart the phone, and reinstall only one Microsoft app directly from the Google Play Store. When signing in, manually type your personal Microsoft account instead of selecting a suggested account. If that works, reinstall the other Microsoft apps afterward.

Please note that clearing app storage can remove offline files and local settings. If the same error remains after these steps, contact Microsoft Support and provide the Request ID, Correlation ID, timestamp, app name, phone model, and Android version privately.
