Allow removal of suggested contacts
Please remove/turnoff Suggested contacts from bottom left

The option to “discard” suggested contacts in your chat list is rolling out to users. We will be making further changes to make suggested contacts more relevant for new users in the future as well, so marking as partially completed. Thanks for your patience with this one.

This feature used to be fantastic- very very useful for us in sales & marketing, and I'd love to have it back in full force. It's quite difficult to navigate it now and also unclear how the algorithm works; is it based on my entries of new contacts or sent emails or is it from the inbox? Please bring it back (superuser, Office2016, yes I did find the folder but it seems not to cover all) but maybe the GUI should be more self-explanatory. KR, Bjorn, Sweden

It would be nice to be able to turn this feature off or at least remove individuals from the suggested list.

Please git rid of this annoying feature. I am constantly collapsing it and then it expands automatically at will

Definitely need to be able to turn off Suggested Contacts, it really is a nuisance. At the very least it should be collapsed by default.

Please allow us to remove terminated employees from the 'Suggested' contacts list. It clutters up the view of my team members, who I'm trying to convince to use Teams.

Removing a single contact and turning off Suggested Contacts all together should be available to the user.

Please don't show me the "Suggested Contacts" section because I don't know the people you mention in suggestions and i can find the contacts I need without the suggestions

I totally agree. Suggested contacts are useless. I do not need MT to decide/suggest who I an add as a contact. This clutters up my chat contacts also. I rather add favorites or contacts who I chat with often to this section. This should be controlled by the user.

YES. I checked with the support team who escalated the SR and was told the users are randomly selected, not based on frequency of contacts. Don't see any business value in this feature. Please remove or allow users to turn it off.

yes, allow us to dismiss them— one of mine is for a colleague who passed away, so it makes me sad to see his name every morning.

Or provide the ability to turn it off, and to disable it for specific users.
