It's four days for me and I am thinking of not re-newing unless they give me a good discount  :-[  but how long would I last without giving in if they say no    ???

They will, but it may take a month or so  ;)  I decided not to renew my sub because of financial constraints. After a week I had terrible withdrawal symptoms, and even got my grand-daughter to sign up for the 14-day free trial just so I could go back without cost.   ::) I couldn't do it myself because they'd have known my details  :)  After about a month I got an e-mail offering me a decent discount for re-joining, so I did, but so far I haven't used it very much because I've had too much to do elsewhere and Family History has taken a bit of a back seat  ???
FindMyPast will also offer discounts from time to time, so watch out for them if you are a member  :)

Well that's a shame, bearkat ???  I can't think why they've apparently ignored you, but have a look around their website and see if there's anything on there about discounts.  Or maybe you could contact them and ask? You never know, it might make them take notice  ;)  If not, try the 14-day free trial and see if that gets a result  :)
Good luck anyway  :)

Fingers crossed that they do mother25  :)

I have phoned up, but they only offered 10% off....£155.00  :-X  the young lady said that that's all they are authorised to offer.

Last year when they thought I hadn't rejoined the £75 subscription, they offered 20% off :-\

I really need the Global subscription as I have exhausted the UK one :-[

I have the global subscription but I pay monthly. Costs a bit more the the yearly but as I couldn't afford the whole amount in one go decided to go for the monthly option.
