My kids' (16 & 11) cord-blood and tissue were frozen with a similar service at birth.

I saw your pricing and was a bit shocked that it's 3x what I pay on an annualized basis. However, my rate seems to have been grandfathered in - the other service has also updated their pricing to match yours.

1. Is there anything particularly different from the competition that you offer?

2. Is there a reason for such a steep price increase? (While I understand the monthly payments, a 3x multiple over 16 years seems pretty steep. You, like the service we used, offer ~20 year storage commitment. Should I be preparing to pay 10 times as much if we want to preserve it for the 20-40 year age span?)
