Microsoft to raise some UK prices by up to 22 percent over Brexit
> business software pricing will rise by 13 percent and cloud services will see a 22 percent increase.
HN title was misleading.
The GBP was high early this year. Then it took 10% hit over time + 10% hit on the brexit day + 10% recently when some political idiot announced that they'd proceed with Brexit next year.
As much as I hate pricing changes, and find companies to be quick to adjust price upward but not downward. I have to admit that there is a bottom price window that will call for aggressive adjustment from international buyers/sellers. Maybe it's reached already. People will have to live with the consequences.
Another cynical cash grab using Brexit/Fallen GBP as an excuse. I didn't see them lower prices when it was at it's highest.
