Microsoft is increasing my monthly MS 365 subscription by 43% starting this month (Feb 2025)! It was $6.99 and is going up to $9.99. MS says it's to pay for Copilot AI. Wow!
They're charging me more for something that has a lot of problems including:

I got the February Increase notice today, June 13, 2025. To me, the increase is what it is but shame on them for telling me four months late!
