Have you contacted The National Archives or FindMyPast?
Ancestry update their database on an annual basis.
FindMyPast update more frequently (monthly?).
I thought, and as was earlier pointed out, that unredacting would occur after the person would have been 100 years old, automatically. In my mother’s case, proof of death would have been needed up until her birthdate in 2023, as she died in Canada in the 1990’s. For her cousin and aunt, both died many years ago, in England. Why were they not unredacted when the 1939 was released? In the same household my aunt’s husband and father were unredacted when it was released.
