I must admit that I hadn't realised current subs could be extended.

Fortunately. thanks to NJ, Groom et al, I now have till April 2016 paid for, AND I find my expired credits applied.

Now, if only Ancestry could get their act together and offer discounts to current members.

That could go for Virgin, Sky etc, just about anyone who has special offers for new customers and zilch for existing.

 ;D ;D ;D

Thank you so much everyone.......I'm sorted till December 2015 now......and very happy.

For all our moaning a few months ago, we're used to the new site now....and would probably moan if they reverted to the old method  :)
Best wishes HL

 :'( :'( :'(

Oops, no, something's gone wrong with mine. I clicked on the link and paid £49.75 and had an email to confirm an extension to my membership for one year. However, on my homepage it still says I have membership to December 2014 but that I also have 95 credits!

Don't want 95 credits, want a years sub for £49.75.

Did it work ok for everyone else?

I was going to ring them......but the phone number is hiding  ???

Help!!
Best wishes HL

Oh dear  ::) ::)

On the other hand.......panic not HL, panic not........it may be the strange way of showing things. On my subscription page it all looks in order and the membership date will probably change when the current sub expires.

Like msr it looks as though the 95 credits applied were my expired credits.

Sorry for rambling (and panicking)  :)
Best wishes HL

If you check the very top of your homepage, you'll find it says Britain member until December 2015. ;)  The left hand side only shows the current subscription, the new one will show on your subscription page on your account as starting when the current one expires.

It caught me out initially when I renewed with the offer last week. ;D

Hi

Just checked mine which I renewed at half price today and the home page shows my current sub expiring in October 2014.  However on the account page both payments are shown with the 2014-2015 sub shown as "inactive".

So all looks fine  :)

Barbara

Edit  Definitely not an idiot!  Sometimes these offers seem to be too good to be true!
