Where do I register,  the monthly sub perhaps?   What bit of findmypast do I say I want to subscribe to in order to use the code?

update:   OK,  I have done it.   Thanks for the alert.

Log into your account with email address and password, select "subscribe", put the code into the box (on bottom right), then you are taken to the payment page which should give the cost as £1.

After you complete the payment details, go to Your Account (top right) and make sure you 'untick' the autorenewal then update (I think it is update). If you don't do this you will be charged the full amount next month.

Added: I see you have sorted it as I am typing this. Don't forget to untick autorenewal.  :)

... and did you "update" as well?  ;)

I think they're a bit sneaky in hoping people will neglect to untick autorenewal, and then the added step of clicking on "update" gives a couple of opportunities for people to get stung with an autopayment. I think they should not have any boxes ticked and leave it up to the customer to tick if they wish to set up autorenewal payments.

Thanks,    I updated auto-renewal, and then went back and checked it.

Thank you everyone for this post. I thought maybe the FindMyPast Offer had expired by now but it just worked for me.

I wanted to research my Rutland family a little more and now I'm able to do it straightaway.
