Another FindMyPast 1 month for £1 World subscription
« on: Friday 14 August 15 08:24 BST (UK) »
I just received the latest The National Archives newsletter and it mentions a FindMyPast 1 month World subscription for £1:

Quote
"Later this year Findmypast - in association with The National Archives - is publishing the 1939 Register for the first time. This register bridges the gap in Census records caused by the Second World War.

While work is underway to bring online access to the Register, Findmypast are offering our readers a one month World subscription for just £1 (usual price £12.95). Visit Findmypast and quote code '1939TNA'. Terms and conditions apply. "

There is no information about how long this discount will last.

Usual caveats about making sure you untick the automatic resubscribe option in your profile.

... and looking at some of the comments on the FindMyPast facebook page, I would un-tick the auto resubscription box straight away as people are apparently being charged before that 1 month expires!!.

May also mention that it looks like FindMyPast will charge extra for access to the 1939 register - it will not be covered under the general subscription

As it currently costs £42 for an entry  I know I won't mind paying a bit extra on my sub
