Microsoft is now part of one of the UK's largest class action lawsuits, which accuses the company of overcharging customers on its software since 2015. The lawsuit, led by barrister Alexander Wolfson, alleges that Microsoft restricted competition between new and pre-owned licenses, resulting in inflated prices for its Office and Windows products. With billions of pounds at stake, the aim is to hold Microsoft accountable for its market practices, reflecting broader concerns about fairness in the digital marketplace. The lawsuit is proposed as an opt-out basis to automatically include all affected users.
Microsoft's actions have had a significant and far-reaching impact on UK consumers, businesses and public bodies.
We believe that Microsoft abused its market dominance by imposing restrictive licensing practices that effectively shut down competition and inflated prices.
