I disagree, LIR accounts are LIR accounts and they are separate entities, if you want multiple LIR accounts to hoard IPv4's, it's only fair that you pay per /22 you aquire this way.

Hello,


A recent change has been made in the Billing and Fee Schedule 2016 , regarding the following sentence: "Members are charged a one-time sign-up fee of EUR 2,000 (two thousand euro) for each new LIR account."


I'd like to discuss why an existing LIR member has to pay the sign-up fee again? As a new small LIR I'm paying a high price for a /22 IPv4. I think it's disproportionately to charge the sign-up fee again from an existing LIR member who is requesting an additional LIR account. 


I'd like to suggest to remove the one-time sign-up fee of EUR 2,000 for each additional LIR account. Or at least lower the sign-up fee to an acceptable rate.

I'm not talking about the sign-up fee for a new LIR member, but about the sign-up fee for an additional LIR account.


Thanks for discussing this subject.


Best regards,
