Unable To Activate Office

[DAnDan]

Hey guys, basically I bought a copy of office 2007 through the ultimate steal student offer, all fine and good. I upgraded from vista to 7, now I can't activate it again as the code's already been used, however Microsoft's number they tell me to call is of no help, and I can't find any other number to call that doesn't just direct me back to the same place.

So I'm hoping some of you may know what to do to fix this? Before I just resort to a keygen .

Edit - 08000188354 is the number I get directed to, microsoft's "activation helpline".

You're gonna have to get in touch with Microsoft somehow. Only they can reactivate/validate your key.

Try the number from here: http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/existing-customers/activation-centers.aspx

Thanks Asim, I've tried that number though, it goes to the same one as the above. Asks you to put in your activation code, then tells me it's invalid (shocker, if it wasn't I wouldn't be phoning you now!), then ends the call, useful right?

I'll give them a call on Monday to a main helpline and moan till they pass me to the right place.
