How to activate your Office 365 services from Bell
Shortly after purchasing Office 365 from Bell, you will receive an email (or standard mail, if email is not an option) containing the first of two welcome letters. This letter will provide you with the credentials required to log in to your Bell Business Portal so that you can sign the Terms and Conditions.
- Using the information from the first welcome letter, log in to the Bell Business Portal at https://www.interaction.bell.ca/.
- Note: Remember to add “@ecare” at the end of your Bell Business Portal user name when logging in, e.g., username@ecare.
- From the menu on the left, select Services.
- Select Microsoft Online Services From Bell.
- Select Accept.
- After you accept the Terms and Conditions, provisioning of the product continues and you are now able to create additional users and view the activity log.
Once you have completed these steps, you will receive the second welcome letter which contains the administrative credentials you need to set up and support Microsoft Online Services from Bell. Below is a description of the fields and their use.
