Hello,
I am trying to buy a personal 365 subscription for my mother.
Currently, she is on my family plan, but I am cancelling that because I'm getting a subscription through my university instead. I saw when turning off autorenewel on my current plan that it was possible to get a subscription without copilot. My mum does not want and will never use any copilot features, so I wanted to get her that plan. However, when trying to create a new subscription for my mum on her account, this option was not available.
Is it possible to buy a personal 365 plan without copilot? Or is that option only available when you're changing a pre-existing plan?

I totally agree, I have changed mine back to classic,
Hi
Thats not true, My subscription was renewed with Co Pilot, for me its a nightmare, changes so much, and blocks and stop you doing what you used to. I eventually, was advise, how to get 365 Office without Co Pilot.
"I agree if for some reason you do like Copilot, just ignore it."
My issue is that the price went up 45% with the addition of Copilot. So I'd be paying more for a function that I decidedly don't want!! The extra $$ is probably to support their AI, which I don't care to fund!
Resubscribe to the copilot plan for a month, immediately cancel and take the option to switch to one without Copilot, that worked for me
Just be aware when cancelling and changing the subscription that the tables that show the various options, shows your current yearly fee for full suite with co-pilot as cheaper than the without copilot option as it does not include the price rise from 1st July 2025 of AU$179 for the full suite with co-pilot. In the table it compares the current annual fee of $125 with co-pilot with the AU$139 fee for without co-pilot.
At first glance it looks like it's cheaper to stay with the full suite with co-pilot. Ditch co-pilot and save AU$40.
