I got " one of its subdomains is already managed by Netlify DNS on another team"

I am trying to use my company’s website, previously managed by a former team member, on my Netlify account.

Specifically, I want to connect the site jade-medovik-4f03c8.netlify.app to the domains link.ssobig.com and ssobig.com. However, I am receiving the following message:

ssobig.com or one of its subdomains is already managed by Netlify DNS on another team.”

The former employee’s Netlify account has been removed from the team, and the domain has also been disconnected from that account. Yet, I am still seeing this message when attempting to add the domain.

Could you please guide me on how to verify my domain and resolve this issue so I can successfully connect it to my Netlify account?

Thank you for your assistance.

Hey there, this is happening because the custom domain you’re trying to use already exists on Netlify under a different account.

Please verify domain ownership and let us know by responding here when that’s done. If the verification is successful we can remove the domain from the other account so you can use it on yours.

Hi there, I’ve verified your record and cleared the domain for your use. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks!


i am still getting same message for my domain.

Hey there, this is happening because the custom domain you’re trying to use already exists on Netlify under a different account.

If you have some idea of who might be using the domain (maybe a previous collaborator or an agency you’ve worked with in the past?), the quickest way to get this resolved is for you to contact that person directly and ask them to remove the domain from their account here:

Netlify > “Options” dropdown > “Remove domain”

If you’re not sure, please verify domain ownership and let us know by responding here when that’s done. If the verification is successful we can remove the domain from the other account so you can use it on yours.

i asked my past co-worker to do that, and he did it. but, it’s still saying same message, so that i am verifying domain ownership process by using this post !

i think i verfied my domain ‘ssobig.com’ but it’s still showing same message

I’m not seeing a TXT record for your domain, can you ensure you’ve successfully created the record with the following subdomain?
