Please read the charging scheme carefully, it only talks about an annual fee. The offer to pay it in 4 steps is just an offer but doesn't change anything about the amount. There is no monthly fee or daily fee... There are no definitions that entering over the
 year reduces the costs. <br><br>
Maybe we should just remove that offer to not pay everything at once, this would decrease discussions and time for processing a transfer.<br><br>
