    Hi

    I don't know if anyone else had had this happen to them, but...

    I recently applied to a well known voucher code site for access to their "Free API access key" and was promptly emailed the free developer key we were planning on using during development, and prior to purchasing the "Premium API Access" for our production site.

    However in the same email I received the free developer key, there was information saying that they were unable to provide me with the "Premium API Access" for the quoted £55 for 6 months approx £9.17 per month.

    Having emailed them for the price I would have to pay I was astounded when I got a price of £425.00 per MONTH. A price increase of 43 times their quoted premium access price... Even though there is nothing quoted in their Terms Of Service about potential re-quoting of the advertised price.

    I am not a name and shame person, and as I am still in contact with the site trying to get an affordable price from them, I will not mention who they are, but I was wondering if anyone else had a shock price increase request from a voucher code supplier?

    Also, who would you guys recommend.

    Cheers
