Just noticed there is a link to a Twitter. On there it gives a user name and password for free weekend access: Username - freedays : Password - 2016-1410

Maybe worth giving a go to see if it works

Tried this myself and doesn't seem to work!

There is another email address you could try contacting for help sales[at]uk-genealogy-online.com

Hopefully they will fix this soon.

The only other alternative at the moment seems to be doing a months subscription for £3 http://www.ukgo7.com/register2016.html.

I have Replaced @ in email address with [at] in accordance with previous alteration to prevent spamming etc.

Thanks, given the parish records I'll probably sign up for a month and see what i can find. Thanks again for the link.

Seems to be working now.
Register and you should get an email confirming your login details and a link to the correct login page.
Login and main screen will appear but this time if you click on Carmarthenshire etc. You can access the records

When you login you may get a pop up advert if you haven't got some pop up blocker installed. If you do just close this window. I'll report this to them as I don't think it should be doing this

Would be interested to know if you can now register and access the records as well.

William Hissey (1805 to 1813, Hampstead Norris),
Kapirin (Siberia 19th Century),

I can access Pembrokeshire records OK. You need to get an email confirmation, I think this confirms they have registered you for the free trial and provide you with the correct link to login using your details and complete the process.

Hopefully this will come through soon. If not, may be worth checking your email spam box. If not i would suggest maybe registering again under a different name in case you entered your email address incorrectly? The correct registration page should ask for your Name, Surname, Email address, Login (username) and password

Addendum:

Also just to say that there is an automatic time out (don't know how long), so if it senses a period of inactivity for a few minutes you will need to log back in

Thanks roycymru - I have now received a couple of e:mails from genuki (which are going to need studying!), hopefully your good news and perseverance will be rewarded.
