The CMA is examining renewal disclosures rather than Copilot pricing itselfThe pricing change traces back to January 2025, when Microsoft added Copilot and Designer to its consumer Microsoft 365 Personal and Family plans.
Microsoft 365 Personal with Copilot is listed at £84.99 per year, while the previous annual Personal price was £59.99, a £25 annual difference.
Consumer-tier users and micro-businesses are most likely to feel the costThe current CMA case covers consumer-facing Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscriptions, not commercial or enterprise licensing.
Small businesses should review Microsoft 365 plans before the next renewalCheck the active plan in your Microsoft account.
