A few days ago, Microsoft resurrected its popular Work & Play bundle in the United States, offering a range of subscriptions to the company"s services at a substantially lower price than it would cost to buy them individually - and it"s now available in the UK too.
The Work & Play Bundle includes one-year subscriptions to the following:
Office 365 Home
Get full installed Office applications on all your devices, plus 1 TB of OneDrive online storage, and ongoing version and service updates.Xbox Live Gold
Get the most advanced multiplayer, free games, exclusive member discounts of up to 50-75% on games in the Xbox Store, and more.Skype Unlimited World + WiFi
Get unlimited* Skype calling to countries around the globe and WiFi access at over 2 million hotspots worldwide.Assure Software Support
Get one year of expert Answer Desk support directly from Microsoft. Assure is a product that includes virus removal, PC tune-ups, one-on-one help—even personal training—as often as you need.
...and on top of this, Microsoft is also throwing in a bonus £40 gift card, which can be redeemed against music, movies, TV shows, apps, games and more, from the Windows Store "and select Xbox stores".
The bundle is priced at £119, which Microsoft says will save you over £220 compared with purchasing each item separately.
If you"re already subscribing to one or more of these services, you can still buy the bundle - the company says that "your subscription will be automatically extended by 1 year when you activate the code".
