Hello, That is what the transfer policy states. As stated in their billing procedure before a member transfer resources or close their LIR accounts, a member will have to pay the full annual service fee for the year in question for the LIR accounts they hold. Only when the full annual service fee for every LIR account has been paid can the transfer or closure take place. On January 1st <x-apple-data-detectors://2> of each year members owe the RIPE NCC the full annual service fee for that year. Some members pay this in an annual, half-yearly or quarterly invoices. However, for the transfer service, the member’s full membership must be paid in order to proceed. Please find more information via the following link: https://www.ripe.net/participate/member-support/payment/billing-procedure-and-fee-schedule-2018 Kind regards, Jack On Mon, 9 Jul 2018 at 08:30, Sebastian Wiesinger < sebastian.wiesinger at noris.net> wrote: > * olena.dmytrenko at bignet.ua <olena.dmytrenko at bignet.ua> [2018-07-09 > 07:46]: > > We got a problem! > > We want to share it with you to find out your opinion on this matter. > > We are transferring our network to other company.
