There is no fee for discharging a financing statement – it is FREE.

Your User ID is a nine-digit number and your password is seven alpha-numeric characters and is case sensitive.

You should only be prompted for the SPG ID and password if you register financing statements for more than one Secured Party Group and the SPG ID and password chosen by default does not match the financing statement you wish to renew.
