Microsoft Office 2010 Discount for UK Armed Forces

A question about : Microsoft Office 2010 Discount for UK Armed Forces

I hope someone on here may be able to help. There was a discount available for Microsoft Office Software for members of the UK Armed Forces but I can't seem to find it. Is there one running currently as it appears to be only for US Forces.
Many thanks!

• There is a version for UK Forces, it is Ј8.95, but you need to access it from the intra-net first.
  I don't have link at the moment, as I am at home.
  It came out in a DIN or RNTM earlier this year.
• It's through the intranet, so long as you've a DII account, I think. It's called SABS-online Home Use, but I can't remember what that stands for...
• https://www.microsofthup.com/hupuk/ho...?culture=en-GB
• I believe the SABS deal ended in November 2010.
• The original thread with the web address is here. Don't know whether it's still running though. If it is still running then it will now be Office 2010 as that's what I got at the end of last year.
  As said, you can only get to it from DII or whatever other system you use to access the Defence Intranet.
• I posted the link in post 4. You need to get your Service's Programme code and use your @mod.uk email address.
  A link to download Office 10/Mac 11 and your product key will be sent to that address, which you then need to forward to your home computer and download from there.
• OK. I don't get to see DINs etc. Not based at an MoD site and only use DII on a needs must basis.
• For anyone in the Navy, you need to read RNTM 244/10 - Microsoft Online Training Courses and Home Use Program
  If you are not in the Navy you can still access the RNTM via the intranet, but this is aimed at the Navy. You should ask at your local Education Centre.
  From the RNTM:
  Home Use Program
  1. The Home use program allows users who use Microsoft products at work to purchase Microsoft software to use at home with a significant discount.
  · The products available include:
  · Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010
  · Microsoft Project Professional 2010
  · Microsoft Visio Premium 2010
  · Office 2008 for Mac
  2. Each is priced at Ј8.95 for the License Key only. The software itself can be downloaded direct from the Microsoft site however if a physical CD is preferred this can be additionally purchased for a further Ј10.35.
  3. To gain access to the Home Use Program a code is required. To receive the code and guidance on using the Home Use Program, using your MOD (DII etc) email account, click the following link and click send on the email that opens.
• Sorry for the delayed reply, but thank you to all who have posted you have been very helpful and it is much appreciated!
• Did you manage to download the software
  Have been searching for this since being told by a friend at Christmas but gave up thinking it had all expired
  Would appreciate a noddy guide of how to obtain it
• I had to email someone at Fleet, can't remember who it was now, but RNTM 244/10 issued about it at the end of 2010 and had all the details on it.
