Thank you, I was beginning to think it was me. 
Some site slowness is the understatement, it would be nice to get to the opening page   ::)

Thanks for that Groom - I guess that explains why it has logged me out and refuses to log me back in >:(

Hi, the thing that worries me is the fact that they have had a huge amount of problems lately, I hope that's not the "Thin end of the wedge"  :o

It does certainly seem to be a fairly regular occurrence recently, there are lots of complaints on FB. Perhaps instead of offering free access for certain censuses to non subscribers, they need to concentrate on making sure that those who do subscribe, and so pay for the upkeep of the site, are able to access it at all times. I understand that there is a need for regular maintenance, but there have been too many problems lately.

I am glad I found this topic - Ancestry has been driving me nuts for the past few days and today it has been non existent.  I have just tried again and after trying to log in it states Login Failed!

Anyone read the T&C's concerning availability/refunds and can post details ?
