Account Deleted. Need Help!

I had a 365 account through my college email.  Today it was deleted without notice.  I have several spreadsheets that I use on a daily basis on this account.  Is there any way I can continue using this account?  I understand that this was paid for by the university and that I will most likely be required to pay to reopen the account.  I just really need access to those spreadsheets.

I wear a lot of hats - Developer, Database Administrator, Help Desk, etc., so I know a lot of things but not a lot about one thing. Experts Exchange gives me answers from people who do know a lot about one thing, in a easy to use platform." -Todd S.

You need to go back to your University administrator. Microsoft will not move an account to another person. The University has to give it to you (if they will).

The University o365 admin will have to open a ticket with MS. Just sort it out ASAP because previously the restore period was only two weeks.

JohnBusiness Consultant (Owner)Commented:
We have already said that
Shaun VermaakTechnical SpecialistCommented:
Firstly, OP need to talk to the o365 administrator, not the University administrator
Secondly, I noted retention time from first-hand experience
JohnBusiness Consultant (Owner)Commented:
You have now repeated the same thing 3 times and reiterated what i already said in the first post.
Shaun VermaakTechnical SpecialistCommented:
And I will continue to do so if I feel that I can add value and help OP solve issue

That's unusual that the college deleted the account without your knowledge or consent. I concur with the others. Contact the university and get it straighten out. If you are still attending the university, it was probably an oversight.
JohnBusiness Consultant (Owner)Commented:
You need to ask your administrator

Glad we could help.
