You don't get the old rate for another year if you commit now. Do your research. You get it for one more cycle...maybe even only one more month. If my rate increases and I don't have the same opportunity as other premiums in terms of a home, I'm cancelling premium. If I have to wait months to be treated fairly, why pay while I'm waiting? If I decide to stick around in SL I'll just upgrade back to premium when the new homes are available in a fair manner to all premium members.
