    Microsoft are a joke. I won't buy anymore crap from them. I've had enough.

  • Hello.. You can find an original activation key for Microsoft Office 2016 on the website licence-activation.com

  • I am still struggling to get an activation code for my phone. I have tried all the possible options given to me by Microsoft support but nothing works for me. Things are just the same.

    • I just confirmed that Microsoft still shows Zambia activations as (27) (11) 361 7000 . I would try another (nearby) country on the list then press 0 repeatedly until someone picks up and you can see what they will do for you .

      I hope this helps.
