Unable to delete people from the chat/contact list in Teams
In the Chat part of Teams, there's a contactlist which has been synced from Skye for Business but, there are people in my Teams Contact list which I have already deleted from my Skype for Business contact list.
When I right click a contact, I only have the option "Copy" which is greyed out. I would like to have full functionality to manage my contact list, delete people, add contacts, group them into other sub-groups in contacts.

Same issue, I have a person in my contacts list that has moved on to another department. I no longer want them cluttering up my list. Is there a way to remove them.

In my case, a Favorite contact is no longer employed by our organization, and there's no way for me to delete her from the Teams Android app.

¿Por qué no pregunta Teams al usuario si puede hacer algo , como por ejemplo añadir automaticamente contactos? . Si el usuario dispone de varias cuentas de correo los esta mezclando todos!

Necesitamos cierto control sobre lo que puede hacer y no hacer una aplicacion. De lo contrario no sirve para nada.

We need this DELETE a contact functionality ASAP! It is 2020. Should be a basic and expected feature - seriously.

Teams pulled in contacts from my phone. Most shouldn't be in teams. No options that I see of delete or remove.

Yes in my Outlook address book all my contacts synced into teams and I would like to edit them or delete the ones from the list that I do not need. How come such a simple feature does not exist in Teams?

Fully agree with this comment. All of my contacts synced into Teams and I don't know how to get them out.

This is the issue which i am facing too. There should be an option like other chatting app where we can add/delete our contact list as per our wish. Should be implemented here too. Thanks

We should be able to delete individual personal contacts, unknowns, or former contacts from the contact list in Teams. This shouldn't require enough votes to happen. This should be fixed as soon as possible.
