Microsoft Office remains a cornerstone for productivity, and activating your software is essential to unlock its full potential. While most users activate Office online, phone activation is a reliable alternative if internet access is unavailable or you encounter connectivity issues. In this guide, we’ll walk you through activating Microsoft Office 2024 Pro Plus via phone, ensuring you stay productive without interruptions.
Why Use Phone Activation?
Phone activation is ideal when:
You’re offline or have unstable internet.
Online activation fails due to server issues.
You’re setting up Office in a restricted network environment.
Before You Begin
Genuine Product Key: Ensure you have a valid 25-digit Office 2024 Pro Plus product key (purchased from Key4sell.com).
Installed Software: Office must be installed on your device.
Phone Access: Use a mobile or landline to call Microsoft’s activation hotline (free in most countries).
Step-by-Step Activation Guide
Step 1: Launch Microsoft Office
Open any Office application (e.g., Word, Excel). A blank document or start screen will appear.
Step 2: Navigate to Activation
Click File (top-left corner).
Select Account (left menu).
Under Product Information, click Activate Product.
Step 3: Start Phone Activation
If online activation fails or isn’t available:
Choose Activate by Phone (or similar wording).
A dialog box will display your Installation ID (a 54-digit number). Note this down.
Step 4: Call Microsoft’s Activation Center
Dial the toll-free number provided in the dialog box for your region:
US/Canada: +1-888-725-1047

Step 5: Enter the Confirmation ID
Return to the activation window on your PC.
Input the 48-digit Confirmation ID.
Click Activate or Finish.
If successful, Office will confirm activation. Restart the app to verify.
