Tech Republic sponsors deals are reliable and trustworthy
Stack Commerce recently utilised TechRepublic's Daily Tech Insider to offer a good deal on Microsoft Office 2021. It looked much like other Microsoft deals I've seen where companies act as bulk buyers and then on sell at better than average discounts.
I encouraged my wife to take up the deal, which she did. She paid the money via PayPal (money accepted) and tried to complete the sign up, which failed, quitting after going around in vain circles for a while.
I felt a trifle unhappy at this point. However, after contact with the Stack Commerce help desk, I realised that my wife's issues weren't with Stack Commerce but rather with the sign up to Microsoft. On her behalf, I completed the sign up to Microsoft, the download, and the install. All of this went smoothly (except for the painfully slow process of getting Microsoft to accept a new ID and passport, especially in terms of accepting one as human).
At the end of all this, I'm happy to say that all is well and that my faith in Tech Republic and Stack Commerce is well and truly restored.
