What is the easiest (cheapest) way to get the current Office with Outlook included?

The new ones sub based approach I dislike immensly I would go get 2013 version from a torrent. Or see if you can find an oem version of it cheap.

Not much difference unless you need the on line storage and stuff you get with 365.

I don't need the online stuff. I have a student version of Office 2010 which gives me Word & XL as much as I need it too. The Outlook 2010 on the student version is a 30 day trial only

The laptop that has fucked up on me has gone back to Acer to be factory reset and I need to get office back on it. I had a dodgy version of Outlook 2013 on it which was fine, although I kept asking for activation, but it still worked

I have a full paid version of the previous version and now it says the key isn't valid, I mean what the actual fuck. Is that right? If you want it I will PM you the download link and the serial number so you can try it @Edmond because it massively annoyed me. Actually just PM me your email and I will forward you the email I got when I bought it (through the school where the wife worked).

Edit - Office Pro 2010 it is and it cost me a fucking fortune (£7.78!!), school deductions are great :D

I'm getting the same licence key message for my paid for version of Office 2010. Was it a time bound licence? I don't remember signing up for that.

It wasn't no, but it looks like they've decided it is now. I wonder if complaining would get us anywhere? It's obviously because they want you to pay yearly for it now.

The MS Office 2010 License should last you a lifetime. I didn't think they could suddenly revoke your license!
I would ring up MS and say your key isn't working please fix!
