Ancestry fee increase

[forester]

I got my notification e-mail today; no niceties, no offers, just Essentials or Premium at full price. 

I've sent my Mr Angry e-mail asking for an explanation, but apparently they are experiencing high volumes of mail and it may take some time to get an answer.

I recently signed up to FindMyPast as my Ancestry and Genes will be ending soon. I have tried FindMyPast before using credits and found it very good, what was of special use was the access to military BMD indexes which I could not find elsewhere. But the census records are limited and you get much better access with Ancestry as far as the census is concerned. I am likely to cancel my Ancestry as it looks like FindMyPast is an up and coming site and should get more content very soon. I will of course keep you updated.

I sounds like our emails were put in spam or junk mail or blocked entirely.

That's funny.  I never received anything about the change in price structure, but they were quick enough to email about how I hadn't updated my credit card details when I received my new credit card...and then were quick enough to cancel my subscription, despite having followed their instructions to make sure it wasn't canceled to the letter!!

There's no way that I'm cancelling Ancestry with the London Parish records, Poor Law documents and London school admissions coming online in 2009 - see here for details.

I've never had a subscription with any site - I've just used credits at FindMyPast or bought pay-per-view at Ancestry two or three times a year, but I'm very interested in the London records, and reckon I'll have to have a subscription for them.

If you want the London records you should read DAwnsh comments on this thread first http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,329027.0.html

They will not be as good as you were hoping

Well they'll still be useful - and I'll give them a pay-per-view go first!

Some of us are still waiting for them to complete the military records.
The medal index cards are far from complete and I don't think many people on the Armed Forces board are convinced that the service records are going to be complete by the end of the year as promised.

My basic sub. runs until February next.

When I received the notification,I found that I was being blocked and asked to upgrade for some of the data bases, such as parish records, etc. ,Which I ignored.

I have just trawled through many of the data bases and again have access to all that I had before!
 Checked my Credit Card and nothing has been debited, so perhaps for the time being they have had to review their legal obligations regarding contracts!
