Sorry, I can't help you, but reading this and other threads about memberships makes us even more sure that we don't want to buy one.
There are about as many different types of TT membership, IMO, as there are blades of grass in a lawn. There was one group in particular that did exactly what you are talking about - revert to a lesser membership when transferred. Some, I have heard, revert only after multiple transfers. Some types do not change on transfer. I was told (did not verify) that frozen dues clauses did not transfer. What you are finding is a good example of why the first steps in the purchase negotiation is to get the member number and call TT for details on the membership stipulations before proceeding.

If I read you right, it sounds like they want to charge because they have a new member, and will not make a dime on it. I would run away from that as fast as possible.
