Unable to purchase M:EE licences
I work as an assistant professor at a private college in South Korea and having used a trial version of Minecraft Education Edition, I found it a great teaching tool for skills development in my class. It has definitely given me and my students some very positive experience.
Unfortunately no matter how hard I tried, it seems impossible for me to buy licences to use it. I was put through numerous customer service support from Minecraft Education Edition to Microsoft Store for Education to Microsoft Store for Business to MSfB Presales Team US to MSfB Presales Team South Korea just to confirm that purchasing a licence is impossible because my college has no Office 365 subscriptions.
Great product but lousy business practice.

Hello Lik-Ren Tai,
At this time an Office 365 Education account is required to use our game. We do sincerely apologize for any inconvenience.

I second this, buying the product is impossible unless you have a Office 365 subcription, which is is not free.
If you school uses Google for Education, you can't acquire Minecraft EE.
It is very sad, we will look into what the competition is offering.0
