Despite our attempts to cope
with inflation and increasing overheads such as telephone costs, business
rates, repairs and renewals, we are unable to do so without making a small
increase in our charges. Over the last five years
there have been only two £5 increases in our fees. We are again able to keep the increase to
£5, making an overall increase in the five-year period of only 3.2% per annum
- No more than the annual rate of inflation. We thank you for your
loyalty and support and look forward to our continuing relationship with you
in the coming year. As from December 1st 1998
our quarterly charge will be £105 + VAT. |
