Isn't that the case though, sometimes it isn't on FindMyPast/Ancestry and vice versa?

I agree with KHP - that has always been the case. I've often found something on FindMyPast that I couldn't find on Ancestry or vice versa, or something on The Genealogist that I couldn't find on the other two. All have their strengths and weaknesses.

I can't see how else we can do them - - there are a few on each page that I would want to keep and some I want to get rid of.

How would they sort them - not by date; or page; or record type; or collection. It would be virtually impossible to do anything other than one by one.

If someone can come up with a suitable algorithm, then I'm sure FindMyPast would be interested.

If this works out, it will be worth all the present problems:

"DC Thomson Family History has formed a new partnership with The National Archives (TNA) to digitise the 1939 National Enumeration Register and make the scans available on findmypast within the next two years."
