    I don't like that you have to repurchase

    I am not a fan of 365. Having to repurchase it every year is ridiculous. But unfortunately there are not a lot of other options.

    When buying a new laptop the salesperson assured me it would stack on my current 365 subscription. It will not. My subscription is a Home subscription for multiple PCs. This is a Personal subscription. Were I to try to use it, it would invalidate all but one of my installs. Should have known better than to bite on an upsale.

    Once you purchase a program you should not have to pay an annual for it unless you want updates/upgrades.

    Don't know how this happened but I purchased the card and then went to the website. They tried to download and said my data was corrupted. Then a chat came up to fix and after a few minutes I realized I was hacked. It was a fake site. I changed all my passwords and then went to another site and it downloaded. Good product but be careful.

    I'm a long time Office user. This seemed perfect. What's on my laptop is on my cell is on the net - right - NOT HARDLY. I spent over 20 hours with MS Support to try to get my laptop Outlook info to my cell and on the net. After the hours one of the service techs finally admitted that they have a server problem. They said it would be a couple of days before it would work. It's been 10 days and still no joy.

    Not Best Buy's fault that the current 365 plan idea is a new form of "highway robbery" but it is a good suite of Office programs

    Thought that we would receive updates for one year and then you could use Office for as long as you own the computer without further updates. But, BEWARE, now have come to learn that after one year Office is no longer usable!

      Hello braveheartpa, Many of the updates made to Office were from feedback we received from consumers like you. With this feedback, Microsoft came out with Office 365 (subscription based only) versions and Office 2016 versions sold at a one-time retail price and you own it forever. We hope this was helpful to you Microsoft
