30 free credits for ScotlandsPeople
« on: Thursday 11 February 10 12:57 GMT (UK) »
I hope it's ok to post this. I've done a search for free credit which turned up 12 pages but don't think I've seen this offer posted on this board recently. The offer closes 28th February.

AncestralScotland and ScotlandsPeople, Scotland’s official online source of genealogical information, are offering you 30 FREE search credits, worth approximately $10.  To claim your free credits, enter your details and the promotional code SMH below.

You used to be able to register with more than one email address, but it appears that is not the case this time. Fair enough I suppose.  ;)

I used Australia and it demanded a postcode - Wiki came to my aid and provided one.

Clever 8) 8)

I just put in my normal (Royal Mail) post code and it was accepted.

Just used my first credit and ordered the cert.

Three pounds dearer than our GRO, though. Still - all round, a bit of a bargain  ;D ;D ;D ;D

I did get another lot of credits by registering my partner. Same PC, same postcode, just different name and email address.
