You had the option to consolidate to a single billing relationship for all of 
the resources, but choose not to do so.

I had one ORG-ID and one bill. I didn’t change my contracts and suddenly I was 
faced with two ORG-IDs and twice the billing.

Owen -

That is correct and not in dispute – because ARIN changed its services & fee 
structure, you were receiving two distinct bills for two distinct services.

It is your characterization of this situation as “double charging” which is 
inappropriate, as that phrase is clearly understood in commerce to mean billing 
an entity twice for a given service.

This did not occur - you were being charged for your legacy resource 
registration services (capped per agreement) and being charged for your IPv6 
registration services – two distinct services with distinct fees and both under 
your control.   You could continue one service, or both, or neither and your 
total fees would change accordingly.   At no time where you being charged twice 
for either service, and hence you should avoid from referring to it as “double 
charging” unless it is your intent to misrepresent others.

Thanks!
