Microsoft 365 Personal Subscription

Question

How to I change my Microsoft 365 Personal subscription to the $129 plan without copilot?

Answer 1

Microsoft was providing the Microsoft 365 Classic version without Copilot at the end of last year in some regions, it was not universally available mostly it was available in Australia due to a local court ruling, and as far as I know they have now deprecated that offer.

If you log into your Microsoft account on this link (https://account.microsoft.com/services/) and choose to cancel your Microsoft 365 subscription, on the next window, you may be offered the option to switch to Microsoft 365 classic, if you do not see that option, then it is no longer available.

Answer 2

To switch from Microsoft 365 Personal to a plan without Copilot, use the option to switch to a plan with fewer features:

1. Sign in to the Subscriptions page at account.microsoft.com/services.
2. Find the current Microsoft 365 subscription and select Manage.
3. Select Cancel subscription.
4. On the Cancel page, review the available plan options and select the plan that removes Copilot if that option is shown.
5. Follow the prompts to complete the switch.

Important details:

• The current subscription usually continues until it expires.
• The new lower-feature plan typically takes effect at renewal.
• Charges for the new plan usually begin when the subscription renews into that plan.
• If the subscription was purchased through a third-party provider such as Apple App Store, Google Play, or a retail partner, the switch must be managed through that provider.

If the goal is the Classic plan without Copilot, Microsoft Q&A guidance in the provided context says that option appears during the cancellation flow for eligible subscriptions.
