Re Ancestry ?

The link that Sandra posted is for "6 months, not 1 year", so they are now charging £199.98 per year for Worldwide.

4 times I looked at the advert posted. I have just looked again, and it has changed back to "Worldwide
£179.99   £89.99* 12 month membership". I noticed on other forums that individuals were also seeing the "6 month" option and NOT the 12 month one. Ancestry playing with the membership.

No it's still £89.99 Worldwide for a year. I'm Admin on a large FB genealogy group and people use this everyday. It only works if your old subscription has expired completely, before that it shows as 6 months.

Hopefully will still be on offer next month when my membership expires been lucky the last few years

Thanks Malky
      Last year in Feb I paid the lower price for one year.
This year being a census release year can only be one of "some reason/s" why they have more than doubled the price from last year and they will not lower until they decide when they think it's "necessary".
I am not a person who will be paying over double for something that I paid half the price for the previous year, as much as I would like to have access to the 1921 Census.
 I can wait and see if a better deal comes up before the release.
Invalidity I suffer with, and with that sort of an increase going on from the previous year is by far too much for me to cover. I may have to settle for at least a one month's contract if nothing else appears    Regards Just J

You can do it within an hour of the old one expiring. Make sure that you cancelled auto renew in time and that you have received an e-mail confirming this. Log in to Ancestry using your email and user name. Then use the link, if it shows 6 months refresh the browser and it should change to the 12 months. People say that it works better on a laptop than a tablet or phone.
