I wouldn't have thought a week is very long to allow for a letter to arrive from Canada, let alone get processed.  Maybe I am out of date with the postal service?

kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

As Arranroots has just said a week isn't an awfully long time, does this website look familiar?

I thank you for the interest in helping me.This transaction took place all online through paypal.Paypal notified me that payment was made and my bank account shows a little lighter.That is the right web page.I am sure there is a good explanation as to what happened,just that I feel like I've been had.

they seem pretty professional overall - but without any knowledge or feedback its hard to say ...

quote from their site:-

Quote
Confirmation of your order is normally dispatched on the day of receipt, but please allow for us being away on research trips for short periods.


I would hope its a glitch - they could hardly continue in business with those sort of fees if they were running a scam ....

I wonder if any 'official' Yorks Family History Groups know of them ?

Might be worth a phone call ?
