I can't see that Malky as it has a big banner over it telling me I need to create an account, which I'm certainly not going to do!

I wonder if BrazilianBombshell sorted it out?

I have just looked back in my emails and found two from "James" 31 Dec and 6 Jan offering 50% off subscriptions.
As I could not remember ever hearing about this site and couldn't understand how they got my email address I was a bit sceptical and as they seemed to be offering the same records for UK as I get with Find My Past.
There are websites where you can check on scams.

"If it seems too good to be true, it probably is"

Could I afford a loss - probably but it would eat into me.

Yes, thank you, Groom, for asking.  I used a debit card and claimed the whole amount back on a Visa Chargeback.   The site, however, had me down as a full member right up till November!  Tread warily.

HI All,
Just a warning this crowd is still around and I'm ashamed to say I was caught. So embarrassing after 20 years of genealogy research.  Was trying to get through a longstanding brick wall, saw all the directories and didn't check! Lesson learned -  next time check in here and of course, if it sounds too good to be true - it will be.
Paid about $55 AUD by credit card and now sorted through my bank though I did get a new card just to be sure no repeat payments. Jane
