You could always contact MS Office 365 support and see if they are able to switch you.<br />
<br />
Not sure what you would be able to attempt after that, might need to migrate to a new tenant with a different plan.

I implemented Office 365 Business Essentials to my customer last week using open licensing. &nbsp;They now want Business Premium. &nbsp;I spoke to my Microsoft reseller and they said we could not upgrade the license. &nbsp;Their recommendation is to buy a Office 365 Business license giving the user the full office suite. &nbsp;Having both licenses would be equivalent to having Business Premium. &nbsp;This doesn't sound like a valid solution. &nbsp;Anyone have any suggestions?

Upgrade Subscription from Business Essentials to Business Premium

Office 365 is a group of software plus services subscriptions that provides productivity software and related services to its subscribers. Office 365 allows the use of Microsoft Office apps on Windows and OS X, provides storage space on Microsoft's cloud storage service OneDrive, and grants 60 Skype minutes per month. Office 365 includes e-mail and social networking services through hosted versions of Exchange Server, Skype for Business Server, SharePoint and Office Online, integration with Yammer, as well as access to the Office software. All of Office 365's components can be managed and configured through an online portal; users can be added manually, imported from a CSV file, or Office 365 can be set up for single sign-on with a local Active Directory using Active Directory Federation Services.
