Microsoft 365 features that help users manage their subscriptions, account settings, and billing information.
Hi Rita,
Yes you can definitely switch you plan. Since your annual plan auto-renewed on October 9th you are within Microsofts 30-day refund window.
Here is what you need to do:
Go to your Microsoft account services page and cancel the subscription right away by choosing the option for an immediate cancellation and refund.
https://account.microsoft.com/services
Once the refund is processed you can simply purchase the plan you want.
If you run into any trouble finding the refund button just reach out, to Microsoft support chat since its only been a few days and an agent/support person can easily process the refund for you.
