If your account is blocked and you are unable to use two-step verification, you can try the following steps:
- Self-Service Password Reset: If your organization has enabled it, you can go to the Password reset portal to initiate a password reset. This may help unblock your account if the self-service option is available.
- Contact IT Administrator: If self-service password reset is not enabled, you will need to reach out to your IT administrator for assistance. They can check if your account is blocked and help you unblock it.
- Check for Risk Blocks: If you are attempting to sign in as a guest and see a message indicating that your account is blocked due to suspicious activity, you may need to follow the same steps to reset your password or contact your administrator.
- Review Verification Methods: If you are facing issues with two-step verification, ensure that your registered phone numbers are correct and that you are not hitting any limits on verification attempts. You can also try using different verification methods, such as the Microsoft Authenticator app.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider reaching out to Microsoft support for further assistance.
