Leaving or Removing a Team Member
Whether you're stepping out of a team yourself or taking someone off it, here's exactly what happens.
Leaving a team (member steps out)#
If you're on someone's team and you want to leave:
- Go to Settings → Team
- Tap Leave organisation
- Confirm
What happens when you leave:
- You lose access to the shared workspace — the team's estimates, invoices, clients, kits and settings
- Your own account drops back to the free Basic plan
- Anything you created while on the team stays with the team — it doesn't leave with you
- Older work the owner or an admin brought into the team for you stays with the team too. Work that was never brought in is still yours
- To keep using Sammy's full features on your own, you'll need your own Pro subscription
Removing a member (owner or admin removes someone)#
If you run the team and need to take someone off:
- Go to Settings → Team
- Find the member in the list
- Tap their role (like Member), then Remove from team
What happens to them:
- They immediately lose access to the shared workspace
- Their account drops back to the free Basic plan
- Their seat is freed up, so you can invite someone else in their place
- Everything they created stays with the team, and so does any older work you brought in for them
Deleting your Sammy account#
If you're on a team (or used to be) and you delete your Sammy account, your team work still stays with the team:
- Quotes, clients, invoices, Jobs and projects you created for the team pass to the team owner, along with their photos, plans and documents
- Photos and documents you added to a teammate's quote stay on that quote
- Work from before you joined is deleted with your account, unless the owner or an admin brought it into the team. Your own settings, and your chats with Sammy, are deleted too
The owner is a special case#
The team owner — the person who pays for the plan — can't just leave. Because the team's data and subscription sit with the owner, you first need to transfer ownership to another member, or close the team entirely. Once ownership has been handed over, the previous owner can leave like anyone else.
Does removing someone change my bill?#
No. Team plans are a flat price for the whole plan, not per person. Removing a member frees a seat but doesn't lower your bill — and adding one back doesn't raise it, as long as you're within your plan's seat limit. See Team Plans and Billing.
