    Didn’t install it. Don’t like the idea of renting it a year at a time. Won’t use it. Bill Gates isn’t rich enough already?

      Hey there,

      Office 365 Home, Office 365 Personal, and Office 365 Business Premium are annual subscriptions of Office software. Our subscription models come with access to cloud storage, software sharing amongst devices and users, real-time access to Microsoft feature and security updates, and access on mobile devices.

      Office Home & Student 2019, Office Home & Business 2019, and Office Professional 2019 are desktop versions of the software that you only pay for once. Our desktop versions don't have real-time access to feature and security updates and offer a smaller scope of Office suite apps versus their Office 365 cousins.

      To learn more about the differences in Office software, follow this link: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/What-s-the-difference-between-Office-365-and-Office-2019-ed447ebf-6060-46f9-9e90-a239bd27eb96

      For any Office 365 subscription, you'll be charged a renewal fee when your subscription time is up. You can check on the status of your subscription within your Microsoft account. You can also renew, switch, or cancel your subscription within your Microsoft account. To learn more, follow this link: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Manage-your-subscriptions-for-Office-365-operated-by-21Vianet-FA4EA95E-F457-4516-AAEB-406712C986B0

      The renewal fee you'll be charged should be listed on the product page you purchased Office 365 from or, on your receipt. If you need assistance with locating that, Best Buy should be able to guide you in the right direction.

      We hope this helps to clarify any confusion and we wish you the best.

      Take care,
      Jo
