MS Cloud Email

Office 365

Exchange Online (Plan 1)

Messaging, calendaring, and email archiving plan accessible from Outlook on PCs, the Web and mobile devices.
Due to change in MS terms, all subscriptions are a rolling 1 year commitment from signup/renewal. Each Licence/User/Mailbox has its own signup and commitment length.

  • If a mailbox subscription is cancelled after 1 month, you will still need to pay for another 11, same if cancelled it after 13 months, there will be another 11 months due. I do not agree with this, and it is completely against SaaS principles. But, it is what Microsoft have done. eg
