Weird. My monthly rate is going up by $2. 75%??????
The previous rate was $80/year, now moving to $140. That's a 75% increase.
Originally, yeah but it was priced hiked to 109.99 before new price hike so it's a difference of +$30 or 20%*

Per the email, their current monthly rate was $10=>x<11, so that's only a jump of $20 a year.
