How to change the Service Administrator to in the Azure Management Portal?

Question
-
Hi,
I know a similar post already exists "how to change the service administrator on azure platfom" (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/windowsazureconnectivity/thread/0504da6b-94da-46f9-adc2-3f667d450d85), but this is actually NOT about changing the Service Adminsitrator, but only adding a new one (Co-admin).
So, how do I go about changing the Service Adminsitrator? The current one, is no longer employed with the company so I obviously need to change this. I'm a Co-administrator myself, for the same services as the Service Administrator who's role I need to take over.
Please advice somebody.
Regards,
Kim

Hello,
Thanks for the replies. I ended up contacting support using Vaibhavs link and they helped me out. Quite simple actually, just log on wo account.windowsazure.com, click "account", click the subscription you wan't to change, click "Edit subscription" in the right-hand menu and change the Service Administrator... This is the new neat looking metro-style Windows Azure subscription and billing portal :)

Hi,
AFAIK, one thing you can do is the migration of the Azure subscription from one live ID to another. But, for more clarity on the different options that you have, I would suggest you to contact Microsoft Support. They can surely help you with this.
Microsoft Support could be reached at: https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?gprid=14928&st=1&wfxredirect=1&sd=gn
I hope it helps!!

Hi Vaibhav,
OK, thanks. Before contacting support I'll try the migrate-option, but can't seem to find any info on how to do this? I think my options are rather descreased, since the Azure subscription administration was moved from the MOCP to Azure itself...

To add a new owner on a different domain, you will have to transfer your subscription. To do so, go to https://account.azure.com/Subscriptions and click "Transfer subscription"
