Where the guarantee lives
A real price lock is written in the terms of service or the order page, with a clear term. Banner language such as "low price" is not a guarantee.
What we mark on Serlist
Deals flagged as price-locked have a stated renewal price in the provider's own terms. Everything else should be treated as subject to change.
Before you buy, open the terms and find the renewal price in writing. If it is not there, assume the price can move.
