I purchased a personal subscription on the 14th October 2026. The money has been took out of my bank account but it is still telling me that I need to purchase Microsoft 365. I need this sorting as soon as possible because I have work that I need to complete. On word, it isn't letting me edit any documents because I have "bought Microsoft 356".

Microsoft 365 and Office | Subscription, account, billing | For home | MacOS

    1

    Open Word.

    On the top menu, click the Word icon and on the drop-down menu, select 'Update Licence'.

    Is that process successful in getting your new subscription recognized?

    2

    If not, log out of the Office apps, then log back into the Office apps to check if that resolves the problem.

    3

    If that does not resolve the problem, log into your Microsoft account on this link, check the expiry date listed on your subscription, is that listed correctly.

    https://account.microsoft.com/services/

    If not, go to the Billing section, is it indicated your payment has been processed correctly.
