What would the O-T do: Price Increase Edition

Edit: Thanks everyone. We have left a phone call for the owner to ask if this applies to us, since we have paid in full. If we need to pay it, we will, it's not worth upsetting our child over.

Is the kid a boy or girl? This is important in this case.

frick em. You paid the agreed upon price at the time of payment.

Baller Dads of the O-T, what would you do?
Obvious answer is buy the dancing school, fire the person in charge of finances, build it into the best dancing school in the country, then leave it to said child when she's an adult just as a gift

Surely there is some form of contract you've signed at some point with them that covers this kind of thing.

Can we get pics of the dance instructors? (Obviously only the ones of legal age) Might require an in-person meeting.

Do you have a receipt that shows paid in full for the year? If so, then you have a completed contract and your kid's tuition is paid for until the next cycle. No receipt, then pay the price or ask for a refund.
Just be prepared to walk away and hear it from the kid and wife. Or choke up the money, shut up and sit to the side.
Most important question, if you pay the extra does it get you a pass to skip the damn dance recital? Because a pass to skip one of those is valued at $350 as per the OT.

State law requires them to give you 3 1/2 days notice before a price increase. The played themselves. You should tell them to get fricked and that you're not going to buy a full page ad in the program.

Serious answer:
1) Just pay the difference
2) Tell them you already paid the agreed on price and if they're going to insist on an increase then you're going elsewhere and want your money back.
If you go with option 2, one of two things will happen:
a. They'll pay you back and you go somewhere else and your daughter will be with different kids and teachers that she isn't comfortable with.
b. They'll agree to let her dance this year with no increase and they'll actually hate you or you'll assume they hate you everytime your little girl isnt picked to be the top dancer or whatever the frick dancing schools do to honor kids that are good
Just pay the difference

you are correct. this is the risk a company takes offering annual payments

Dance school owners make bank.

Sounds like to me you filled your contractual agreement under the 800 price and therefore should be immune to another price increase after the said transaction was completed.

Just ignore the email, and when they bring it up to you tell them you were under the impression you had already paid in full. You will eventually end up paying, but I would at least make them a little uncomfortable in having to acknowledge they screwed you a little

Let one of the other dance moms complain and just reap the benefit.

You won't be able to dance your way out of this one, but the kid might if she's learned enough.
