I got this laptop secondweek in November 2018, and I haven't been able to use my Microsoft office since then because I couldnt find the product key. Fast forward to today, i try using my microsoft account to activate office, but I'm being told, 'we couldn't find office licenses associated with _my email_'.

what do I do?

I have searched every possible place for  25 digit numbers (product key) like the back of laptop, set up instructions, and even an online guide I downloaded specifically for my product.

The last person I met concerning this (a Computer technologist in school) told me that there's money involved to get it done . That is, I have to buy a product key. I also see that optio when I open my Microsoft office. 

 

Please I would really like another option asides the one above. Thank you

Hello

indeed, there is often a trial version !
In order to use office, you have to buy a license
Otherwise you can try free equivalent software
as free office

You are free to look for something else, or to buy a microsoft license
