Public IPs not available when moving a Resource Group

Hi!

I'm trying to move a whole Resource Group from one subscription to another but the checks fail always stating that the destination subscription has not enough Public IPs available to proceed. However, if I try to create one manually on the source subscription, there's no issue. Furthermore, when I try to check my subscription's Public IP quota seems that I don't have any or, at least, I'm not allowed to do so.

How should I proceed?

Thanks in advance,

    Hi @SysAdmin ,

    please take a look here regarding the move of a Public IP address: Dependent resources

    Dependent resources

    When you move a resource, you must also move its dependent networking resources. However, you can't move across subscriptions any resource associated with a Standard SKU public IP address. To move a virtual machine with a network interface card to a new subscription, you must move all dependent resources. Move the virtual network for the network interface card, and all other network interface cards for the virtual network. If a virtual machine is associated with a Standard SKU public IP address, disassociate the public IP address before moving across subscriptions.
