WHAT TO DO

Record what each legacy arrangement includes.

WHERE

On the account, visible to support.

WHY

It removes guesswork and inconsistency.

WHAT TO AVOID

Applying current policy to an old agreement without checking.

WHY

It is the commonest cause of a long-standing customer becoming hostile.

WHAT TO HONOUR

What was actually agreed.

WHAT TO DO IF IT IS UNSUSTAINABLE

Approach it deliberately, with notice and explanation, rather than by refusing a request.

WHY

Discovering a change through a refused request feels like bad faith.

WHAT TO PLAN

Migration to current plans, where it is genuinely better for them.

WHAT TO OFFER

A comparison, honestly stated.

WHAT NOT TO DO

Pressure them.

WHAT TO RECORD

Every legacy commitment, in one place.

WHY

It is otherwise held by whoever has been there longest.
