Office Live Websites Advertised as Free Then Charged Yearly Fees

Microsoft Office Live falsely advertised websites as free. When Microsoft first began advertising this service, they initially promised that the websites of early enrollees would be free, forever. Of course, that was a lie, as evidenced by future emails stating that said websites would no longer be free. Yet, interestingly enough, they still advertise said websites as free, which you can see for yourself by clicking on the following link: http://www.officelive.com/en-us/. Keep in mind, when Microsoft finds out about my report, they will threaten to sue me unless I retract my complaint. But, unfortunately for them, I have an affidavit witnessed by a notary public, proving the accuracy of my report. But, because of their vast wealth, my report won't matter, in the long run. I know better than to expect other consumers burned by Microsoft Office Live to seek legal retribution, because Microsoft has more money and time than all the ripped-off consumers, combined. Prospective consumers who do their due diligent research will hopefully discover my complaint here, and will save time, money and frustration.

In addition, when my websites came up for renewal, Microsoft pulled a bait and switch move on me by telling me that, in order to keep my website, I'd have to pay $14.95 yearly to them, for the website, AND an additional $35 yearly for the domain to Melbourne IT, which is Microsoft's domain registrar. Curiously, Melbourne IT is based in Australia.
