Works like a champ, Logged onto my Microsoft account and they verified, download is happening right now. CDKEYS is a for real company. I have used the CDkeys service many times.
28 bucks for office, been running 2003. it was time for an upgrade!
download, it checked my Microsoft account one more time and its activated through Microsoft.
If you don't have a Microsoft account, you will need one!
Worked perfectly. I bought the key, and stimulated a download from the site (hope it's really microsoft!). Installed and runs properly, key worked, registration check by MS passed.
Would have been smarter to download the actual Office from another site...
I'm so perplexed that people downvote criticisms of this site. "Trustpilot," as far as I can tell, is an aggregator of user reviews. If they're actually real user reviews (i.e. the site isn't totally fake), it just reflects that the codes work _for now_. As others here have said, you can go get keygen codes on Reddit for even less. They'll work for now as well.
Nobody has even come up with a hypothesis for how this site could exist and be legit. Why would Microsoft want to sell Office for next to nothing but do it on a shady Chinese site of all places?
Interesting review on trustpilot from 3 days ago.....
On 4/26/17 I ordered a windows 10 key and two office keys from them. Windows 10 key worked just fine. One office 2013 key worked and 1 did not. After spending 2 hours on the phone with Microsoft support i found out that the office key i was trying to use has been blocked since 2013!
That's strike one for selling me a bad key. Then after an hour of trying to get a hold of someone here for support i get another key.
This one didn't work either, after spending another hour with Microsoft support i found out it was a MSDN key which BTW is Illegal to sell per the agreement. Then i try the online chat support and i get Claire. After arguing with her and so on so forth she tells me to try chat again in an hour to talk to a manager. I let her know i have to go home and cant wait here at work for an hour to have the manager email me. Never got an email now its 4/27/17. I am on chat again trying to get this resolved then she starts arguing with me regarding the version I have and things not working. She argues with me regarding wanting a screenshot to clarify my version of windows. Keep in mind at this point I'm wasting my time with her since Microsoft itself has already clarified that this company gave me an illegal key but, i paid for them and i either want my money back or a working key. Then she says she can give me a office 2016 key. What the hell is wrong with this company?

I can answer that. People tend to save office docs in the default format which isn't backwards compatible.
I much prefer the older, far less bloated versions of office, but have to have a newer version too just to deal with the newer file formats that people send me.
I used to ask that files be re-sent in a more compatible format but that can make turnaround time longer than I want, and annoy people even if it's their fault for using a new proprietary format when there's nothing about the document that needed it.
That translates into people needing newer versions of office just to deal with those that already have them and legitimate sales for MS Office since most people won't know about this deal.
Why would MS give away Windows 10? Similar applies for those reasons too. Trick a large enough % of users to switch and it has a snowball effect.
Who really "needs" Office 2016? Very few people if nobody else had it yet.

Why weren't you able to activate online automatically?
