Warning: Don’t fall for fake CAPTCHAs
Most people don’t think twice about CAPTCHAs. And that’s being exploited. There’s a new twist on something you see every day. It’s catching people out in a way that only shows up later…
VideoFrom 1 July 2025, Microsoft will stop offering free Microsoft 365 Business Premium and Office 365 E1 licences to charities.
Here’s what that means:
What’s still available:
Paid licences are not affected.
Charities will get reminder emails from Microsoft 90, 60, and 30 days before their licence ends.
What You Can Do
If you work with or know a charity using Microsoft 365, please let them know about this change. It’s important they plan ahead so they don’t lose access to their tools and can plan for changes to budgets.
Need help or advice? We’re here to support you and the charities you care about.
