Azure Announces 22% Price Increase for the UK in January 2017
-
Azure, and rumour has it Office 365, will be increasing 22% in price come January for the UK market. Likely this is related to the Brexit costs and the sinking of the pound. But a major hit for UK customers who are already being hit in numerous ways.

Yeah been told this by several suppliers that all licensing will be going up.

Not a "real" increase, it's actually just an adjustment for the change in the value of the pound. Had they left it, the UK would have been paying less than everyone else.
