Hello,

If you have been charged twice for the same subscription, the refund will be automatically initiated within a few days.

Before proceeding, ensure the second charge for the same subscription isn't from another Microsoft account or a family member's account. If the charge is from a different Microsoft account, visit the Services & Subscriptions page to cancel the subscription. After cancellation, you'll receive a confirmation email, and the refund will be automatically issued within 3-5 business days.

https://account.microsoft.com/services

========================================================================

If the charge is from the same account and the refund is not issued automatically, please contact Microsoft Accounts and Billing support.

  1. Go to this page: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/home/contact
  2. Type Talk to an agent then click Get Help.
  3. At the bottom of the page click Contact Support. Sign in to your Microsoft account if needed. If you face the same issue with the affected account use a different account to contact Microsoft Support.
  4. Select Other Products then Billing and Account Profile questions then Confirm.
  5. Click Chat with a support agent in your web browser.

    Hello, thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.

    What is the exact error message you receive when you try to edit your files in the Office applications on your Mac?

    If your Office subscription appears as active under your Microsoft account at https://account.microsoft.com/services, but you are still unable to edit documents in the Office apps, you can use the Office License Removal Tool. This tool removes all previous traces of Office licenses from your Mac so you can then reactivate the apps with your current subscription.
