I am trying to learn how to use Azure's web app services to set up a custom domain, but I am getting a consistent issue with it think I don't have a paid subscription. I am on the "Shared" service level and have a Pay-As-You-Go subscription, yet when I try to click the "Buy Domains" button in the Web App dashboard for my application it automatically shows me a screen "To buy a custom domain, you must have a paid Azure subscription." I have been try to refresh and reconfigure all the options related to my subscription, but it won't seem to let me buy a domain. Are the subscriptions I have not sufficient to do this?
I experienced the same problem. I had just signed up for a new azure account and then converted my subscription from free-trial to pay-as-you-go. Somehow this doesn't propagate correctly because the subscription still showed the free trial credit. I filed a ticket with MS Support, and received an actual phone call back from a support person. They resolved it behind the scenes. Credit disappeared, but my subscription was successfully now showing pay-as-you-go in the portal.
Successfully buying a domain through the portal is another challenge though.
Are you the Service-Admin or Co-Admin?
It might be an operation only Service-Admin can execute.

Days ago I onboarded a customer using Service Principal with an ARM template in our blob storage, then the client went to this URL:
https://portal.azure.com/#create/Microsoft.Template/uri/{Blob Url}, accepted us as their resource manager, and we could make connections and go-to resources but via PowerShell, why it doesn't show to us in our Azure Lighthouse Customers page?
I can work with the resources, make deployments, and such but doesn't show in the list, I want to know if it is because we need to be gold competency or an expert MSP because we don't want to make a public offer in the market, we just want to manage certain customers.
It should be displayed there. No special conditions are required such as the ones you've mentioned. Are you definitely signed in to your own partner/MSP tenant with an account that has delegated access to the customers? Does anything show up under delegations within the Azure Lighthouse section?
If you have access to the customer tenant, does your company show up under Service Providers within Azure Lighthouse on the Azure portal?
Case closed, the Service Principal itself doesn't have the privileges on the service provider's tenant to make your user a reader. So the solution for this was:
Remove the offer in the customer tenant.
Add new authorization in the ARM template for a user/group with "Reader" built-in role id. (In our case, we decided to use an AD group because people in the organization is temporary)
Upload the new ARM template and re-onboarded the client.
After a couple of hours, the client's subscription showed in the subscription list in the section: Directories + subscriptions, checked it, and saw all the resources from the service provider's tenant.
I found a solution for this issue.
The Azure Lighthouse->My customers list on the azure portal only shows subscriptions activated in the global directories and subscription filter.
Please go to the global directories and subscriptions filter (in the portal top navigation) and open the drop downs for directories and for subscriptions and check, if your customer subscription appears here.
If yes, select all entries in both drop downs.
After that go back to Azure Lighthouse->My customers
and check, if the customer subscription appears now.
A couple of clients gave me access to their Azure subscriptions so that I could do work for them. The work has been completed and I asked them to remove my permission from their subscriptions.
They have done this but for some reason their subscriptions still show up in my list of available subscriptions when I click on my profile in the top right of the Azure Portal.
I can click on one of the subscriptions and switch to it, but I cannot see any of their resources, or create new ones. This confirms that I do not have permissions for that subscription anymore.
So if my access has been removed, which is it still showing up in the list of subscriptions which are available to me? Is there any way I can remove it from the list?
Thanks :)
It is not possible at the moment.

Greetings from Microsoft Azure. I reviewed your request and would like
to mention that there is unfortunately no option to remove the
disabled subscription from the Azure portal. This is by design to
enable customer’s view the subscriptions purchased by them right from
the day the Azure account was created.
This means you are still a member of the directory (even though you are no longer an admin of anything). You can ask the administrator of the directory to remove you.
You should also upvote this suggestion: https://feedback.azure.com/forums/223579-azure-portal/suggestions/13327620-remove-old-directories
If you are a co-admin you can remove yourself by navigating to Settings->Administrators->Select->Remove from the classic portal (old)
I cancelled my "Pay-as-you-go" account that used to host my windows azure website. today I looked on google however, and it decided to index the azure site (builtagroup.azurewebsites.net). I want to re-enable my account and put a permanent redirect on the site until google removes it, but it's not letting me. When I try to re-enable it, it just makes me create a new account, but does not let me have access to my old site. Any suggestions?
I don't think there is any current provision to re-enable cancelled account. You might have to open Billing Support ticket with Windows Azure Team and which is free.
Support for billing and subscription management issues are covered
with your Windows Azure subscription at no additional charge, and you
don’t need to have a Windows Azure Support plan to raise these issues.
To submit an incident, go to the Windows Azure Support site and click

I have MSDN subscription "Visual Studio Professional with MSDN" and I am using Windows Azure using my subscription. I just wonder what happen if my subscription will expire, Can I still use free quota on Windows Azure portal forever? Or I won't able to access portal after my msdn subscription expire.
regards
You should be able to continue to access the Windows Azure Portal after your subscription expires. When you signed up for the Windows Azure subscription benefits for MSDN it required you to enter a credit card. Depending on when you signed up the spending cap feature may have been in place, which would mean that you would not have been charged for overages unless you requested the spending cap removed.
Check out information about the MSDN benefits and the spending cap information. Here is another good article as well.
When the subscription completely expires then if you keep your data in there without removing it eventually you will either need to remove the spending cap to pay for that or remove it (all running deployments would have been stopped for you). I believe they store the data like 90 days after a subscription runs out before completely destroying on their own.
If you are using the Windows Azure Web Sites feature for the Free sites, you should be able to continue to access those sites (based on the quotas) at any time.
You can also request that an Azure Subscription be transitioned from a Trial or MSDN account to a pay as you go account at any time (see the last article above). Basically you are just removing your spending limit.
I have contacted Microsoft about moving a website to a different subscription, but that is not possible it seems.
Moving a web site from one subscription to another is not the same thing as retaining an MSDN subscription as PAYG after it has expired.
In the new Azure Portal, people who with 3-Month Free Trial subscription can create up to 10 websites.
I create a website using 3-Month Free Trial subscription already. Otherwise I have other subscriptions like Windows Azure MSDN and Pay-As-You-Go, but how can I create new website using these other subscriptions.
I mean, when I try to create new website, there's no way to select subscriptions, and the new website is always under 3-Month Free Trial subscription.
Based on your above description, I am not sure if you have a Paid Windows Azure Subscription.
So what you really need is to get a paid subscription first and that you can get directly from Windows Azure Account section at Portal. Paid subscription means you will have to pay for any other services (i.e. storage, bandwidth etc as applicable) you will use. You will have 10 free websites and will not pay anything if you just use Windows Azure Websites (ONLY) but still pay for Azure storage or anything else.
If you have multiple subscription associated with one single live account and accounts have Preview features enabled then I can see that new Management Portal does not have a way to select specific subscription to create a service. You would need to login to older portal and setup different Live ID for different subscription in "User Management" section and then use that specific Live ID to access specific subscription to create your website. (Note: The preview Portal is still in preview that's why such functionality in not available yet).
The new subscription needs to have the Preview features enabled:
"All you have to do is activate the Web Sites preview on the new subscription by going to Account (View my bill) -> Preview Features: https://account.windowsazure.com/PreviewFeatures "
