You do as if this was a surprise, but this is clearly documented and discussed. And you have been on the mailinglist for long enough to know that up front as well. <br>
<br>
If you have 3 LIR accounts this year, and want to put the resources in a single LIR, you MUST wait for 2 years before you can do so. <br>
<br>
All LIR accounts that are in either entity should be paid in FULL for the hole year once you start transferring resources. <br>
<br>
This means you pay per LIR : <br>
<br>
2000 euro setup fee. <br>
1400 euro first year<br>
1400 euro second year <br>
<br>
Times 3 ... <br>
<br>
After that, you can request for a transfer of the resources in to a single account and close the 2 other LIR's. <br>
<br>
After which, you have a single LIR account with 3 resources in it and a future cost of 1400 euro per year. <br>
<br>
What you want to do has nothing to do with a Policy violation ... the policy is clear, RIPE NCC is executing the policy as documented. <br>
<br>

Hi.<br>
<br>
Regarding our situation. We have 3 accounts opened this year (for<br>
different legal entities). We provided the oficial government<br>
documents that confirm M&A procedure. But the NCC doesn't want to<br>
merge 2 accounts (of closed organizations) into the 1st account due to<br>
it is necessary to convert such accounts into additional account of<br>
receiving party, regarding<br>
<a href="https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-709#transfer36" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-709#transfer36</a>.<br>
<br>
But there is restriction to transfer the resources during 24 month<br>
between accounts of the same member. So we should pay for additional 2<br>
years fees.<br>
