Product Key Downloader

[Nottm_George]

Sorry I put this in the wrong place at first as anyone heard of this company? as I was looking to download Windows 7 Premium but the price for the product key ( £14.99) seems very cheap, any advice, or am I looking at a scam.

I'd be very wary of them. It is the key to using the software you always buy, and I'm unsure MS supplies legitimate keys for that price.

Their service seems to be a bit 'hit or miss'. i.e. some people get what they pay for (and subsequently provide very positive reviews) but others don't (and then provide scathing reviews).

The US-based Better Business Bureau has some positive reviews listed but there are also these complaints:

Companies which sell cheap product keys often get them through harvesting the data stored on redundant computers. (i.e. they're used keys; given that Microsoft no longer sells legitimate keys, that's not surprising). If those computers were never used online (as many office computers aren't), or if the Windows 7 installation was never registered with Microsoft, there's a good chance that such a used key will work on another computer; however any key which has already been used to connect to Microsoft's servers won't work elsewhere.

I can vouch for this seller on ebay – you just need to make sure you buy the 32 bit or 64 bit required for your PC.

Each of the above listings is for a Windows 7 DVD disc, including COA which is conveniently printed on the DVD for future reference.

I've bought keys from ebay for Windows 7. All have worked fine. Make sure the seller has good feedback. I use Windows 10 at work after an upgrade from Windows 7. It is much faster specially on boot. It was not even a clean install, just upgrade. I've gotten to like Windows 10. Once you have all your settings in place, programs installed...it's a breeze. I've certainly changed my tune since it was launched!
