There's a whole set of protection for your tech too, with Microsoft Defender to protect your data and devices, while OneDrive - where you get 1TB of storage - defends you against ransomware. But most significant is the McAfee Total Protection, which blocks viruses, malware, ransomware, spyware, the lot.
If you need a laptop or computer to put this on, Amazon have cut prices on a whole bunch of them for Amazon Prime Day. One loved by MyLondon readers is the Jumper gaming laptop, which boasts a powerful Intel Celeron processor and weighs only 1.65kgs. It also boasts 16GB of RAM, making it ideal for gaming. It has a 4.4 rating out 223 reviews.
The bundle has a 4.5 rating out of 12,268 reviews, with 8,955 five star reviews and 736 one star. One person wrote: "Received email with product code within minutes. Very easy process. Went to Microsoft account and redeemed the code. Current Microsoft 365 Family user with subscription running out in 6 months, extended a further 15 months. Seamless experience. £53 is bargain, especially for the 1TB OneDrive cloud storage for 5 members of family. Other competitors charge double just for storage for one person!" Another added: "Fast and easy way to update Office 365 and McAfee."
However, a less pleased customer wrote: "Like all MS software it's created to make as much money as possible for the company, hence the licensing model. On the other hand it does what it does." Another added: "No app available for Chromebooks. Overpriced and quite awkward to use but alternatives such as Libre Office are never 100% compatible. Pretty much a monopoly given its almost exclusive use in schools and companies. 1TB of cloud storage per person for up to 6 people isn't bad though."
