This email came from you today....."Starting on 14/05/2025, the price for your Microsoft 365 Family subscription will change from AUD 139.00/year to AUD 179.00/year. "
This is totally excessive and wholly unjustified. I am completely uninterested in using your copilot system. All I want is the Word Excel and PowerPoint on my Mac.
I've seen some responses that suggest I can cancel and subscribe to MS 365 classic for cheaper.. But this not available in Australia. Are we Guinea pigs here to see how much you can gouge out of ordinary people. Shame on you and your ethics.
I think this move by you signals my final association with Microsoft and its products after nearly 40 years.
Microsoft 365 features that help users manage their subscriptions, account settings, and billing information.

There's an ACCC action just waiting to happen here.
A 29% increase on a subscription service that has high encumbrance to change. That's a definite misuse of market power.

Totally agree!
... and of course the response will be increasing "interest rates", "cost of living", etc.
A 29% price increase is totally unjustified! Cost of living has not increased that much in the last years.
They have us trapped, now gouging for all they can. Wonder if this is a case to take to the ACCC?
