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.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
I cancelled my subscription. There are other programs I can write with that I don't have to pay for.
sadly, no that did not happen.
Actually, you can stay to your original subscription package, just turn off your automatic renewal, they will propose you to stay on your classic subscription witout AI
And MS wonders why their stock has been floundering. CRAZY - if I or anyone else wants AI make it an added value purchase. I and most people do not need it. LOWER THE PRICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am also angry about the price increase from $109 to $159 in January this year. It is excessive and unjustified! I also hate the AI Copilot system and do not want it in my Office or emails. It is annoying and intrusive. All I want is Outlook, Word and Excel. I cancelled but can't find MS 365 classic or any other option than to just re-subscribe for MS 365 at $159 yr. Microsoft needs to reduce the cost or offer cheaper options.
