Why has there been a 50% increasing the price of Microsoft 365 Personal? This is an extraordinary increase and unaffordable for most people .

It is not about my ability to afford. It is the fact that the price has risen 50%! Nothing to do with price rises since 2013? What are you chatting about! A simple charge was all we had as a one off! You have taken the liberty of the everyday user for extra software most do not require? Why should people have to pay the hike for your additional stuff?

I am going to speak to a body that can investigate this from Microsoft as it is not right.

I am a disability pensioner and student. A large increase of 50% affects me. Especially when we are forced to take on Ai, it should be optional.

If you do this (don't want the increase and switch to Family Classic) the price is higher! It is scandalous how much they have increased it. I don't want Copilot either but we are being charged for it anyway. And I, like others cannot afford this. Absolutely disgusting Microsoft!

Must be country specific then - I had no issues at all in the US cancelling the one subscription and changing it to the lesser one without Copilot that still cost 69.99. I was able to cancel before my subscription even expired, and it was set to automatically renew at the cheaper price. All went as expected a few weeks ago when the subscription ran out.

Im from Australia- and when I cancelled subscription it did give me offer to change to classic - which I have now done.
