My sub is due for renewal on Ancestry.co.uk & wondered if there was any promotions going on at the moment? Thanks

Thanks Tinky Winky. When I tried it says I am already subscribed, but it runs out next week! I may ring them & see what they can offer me! :0) Joan

Just tried the lost cousins website, and got through to Anscestry.com - entered my name and email address - clicked to continue, was told that I was already subscribed under my e-mail address! Stated that if I had forgotten my password to click where indicated, and I would be contacted by e-mail which would contain links for me to create a new password! HOW can someone else be using my e-mail address - I always thought my add was unique to me only......now I'm puzzled! NOW I am awaiting their e-mail to see what they say. HOWEVER the lost cousins link via 1851 census suggests that you will only be able to access 1851 - no other years - am I correct?

Joan, I pmd you on Family Tree Forum but if you are already subscribed ancestry will pick it up and not let you join at a newbie rate. I got round it last time by putting hubbies name and email in - lol. This time I rang them up demanding the same sub as 'all my members on a genealogy forum' and I got it reduced to £55 but they may be hardening a bit to that as so many have rung. If you arent desperate hang on til after yours runs out - they let it run on for a couple of weeks after your end date. Or try the change of email and name tactic.

Thanks Heather! Don't they do auto renewal though if you just let the membership run out? I can't afford two lots of subs, lol! Do I still cancel the original one then, first! :0) Joan xxx
