Subject: [LCH Announce] Power price increases
Message-ID: <010d01c8e5b6$bf0df270$0a05000a@lchost.local>

Hi,

We have recently been advised by Telehouse that in the face of recent
wholesale pricing increases (ridiculous as they are), that effective
immediately the price for power is going to be increasing by just over 47%.
Our power pricing which we charge our customers has practically no margin
(<3%) in it whatsoever and so we have no choice but to pass this directly
on.

With this in mind, we face no option but to conduct a full audit of every
colocation customer to ensure we have accurate power readings for all of you
and an increase to other non-colocation products is inevitable.

The only product we have a revised price for at this time is that those of
you with itemised power on your bill will be paying ?22.00 instead of ?15.00
per month per 1A (240w) of power (which is 172.80kWh, or "units", making an
effective rate of 12.73p per unit).

Regards,
Phillip Baker
