    Not sure what the problem is. I have Office 365 and it is installed locally and also has Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Access, Publisher, Outlook and may be others I've missed. What aren't you getting?

    OK my work email has been verified and I have tried the Pro Plus link on https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/store/b/office-home-use-program?rtc=1&wa=wsignin1.0&lc=2057 - Which takes me to :
    "We are sorry, the page you requested cannot be found.
    The URL may be misspelled or the page you're looking for is no longer available."


    I have now had it confirmed by MS - Office 2019 Pro Plus is not available in the UK under HUP - They have another option that costs £55 - which is over 5 times what a US resident pays !
    It says on that page for Office 2019
    A Home Use Programme discount on this product is only available if your employer’s Home Use Programme administrator has selected you for this product-specific discount.
    So maybe your employer has somehow opted out of providing Office 2019. It's allowed me to add it to my shopping cart so maybe my employer has different settings.
