Hello, It is change and will change more rapid, with consolidation of LIRs and dropping their number, we will get 20% membership fee increse if not for 2025 but for 2026. With resources Telecom Armenia holds right now and with flat steps up charging scheme I offer, the annual RIPE fee for your company will be: 16500 Euros With other words 1375 Euros per month ! Lets be serious you really think that such money will cut your long therm company contracts ? Or will affect prices in some way your company gives to the customers ? How much % of your company annual turnover are 16500 euros ? We need to create much more sustainable and predictable future of RIPE. In same time to fix all mistakes done by now (because or because not someones interests) and make things fair for all members. Also it is very very posible RIPE to attract new members wich automaticaly will lower the fee your company will have to pay after time.
