Ms Technet Subscription expiry date confusion
Hi all
I took out an agreement (subscription) in JUNE last year --( Expiry date june 4 -- in European date format 04/06/2010).
I get a letter in APRIL (and a few follow ups) saying my subscription is about to expire -- please renew. Excpiry 04/06 which they seem to think is 6th of APRIL rather than 4th June.
There's also a PROMO code -- I can renew for around 175 EUR.
I don't mind renewing but I don't need reminding 2 full months before expiry -- I've also had at least 5 LETTERS from MS as well.
Now this to me seems a total waste of postage and paper - just multiply this by several HUNDRED THOUSAND times - and this is just TOTAL money down the drain.
The waste of money would probably be sufficient to significantly reduce Windows 7 licensing costs all round.
Cheers
