Microsoft Office 365 Price Increase.

If you use Microsoft 365 or formerly Office 365 (Word, Excel, Outlook, Onedrive, etc) The price will been increased by Microsoft at your next renewal.  Most people pay for this Yearly.

If you have 365 Personal (one user) it will increase to £84.99, previously £59.99.

If you have 365 Home it will increase to £104.99, previously £79.99.

This now includes Co-pilot which is the AI developed by Microsoft.   For more information click here.

You maybe able to avoid the Microsoft Office 365 price increase If you wish to have Office 365 without Co-Pilot. You can change your Office 365 plan from Home to Basic in your Microsoft account. It will then stay at £79.99 as I understand it. You will get the same software as before but without the Co-Pilot option.

If you do not use office much but would like to have the option there is a free online version.  This has most of the functionality that the desktop version has but you use it from the browser eg Microsoft edge, Google Chrome, etc.  So its a bit like accessing any other web site or page but is has Word,etc, displayed.  Try this at Office.com or click the link below.  Most people will already have a Microsoft account anyway.  You were pushed to create one when you setup your PC.
