Seems you're too late. Just in case, open a support case and ask the engineer to do a restore/escalate as needed.

Thanks Fethi - is this because of the hybrid environment, and the 30 days isn't actually accurate?<br />
<br />
When will this be purged from the recycle bin?

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
In my Office 365 environment, I have a user that was &quot;Soft-Deleted&quot; in the Recycle Bin, date given it was soft deleted was exactly 30 days ago.<br />
<br />
When I try to Restore it, it gives me this message:<br />
<br />
You cannot restore this user because it is been more than 30 days since you deleted them. You can create a new user, but the data associated with the user you are trying to restore has been permanently deleted and cannot be restored.<br />
<br />
Does this mean that is it now unrecoverable and all data has been deleted? &nbsp;Or will recreating the account first be needed? &nbsp;What is the pur pose of the soft deletion if it can't be restored?<br />
<br />
Thanks Experts!
