find my past
« on: Sunday 01 January 17 17:23 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,
   please, can anyone help,  and tell me how to cancel my " find my past" subscription
    .I have tried to get into the site,  but they never accept my log in details, which are correct every time  ,yet i have to change my password nearly every time.
  My current subs are to end on 8th Jan 2017 so I do have to contact within 5 days of ending my subs.and because of all this hassle I will not rejoin again,I have been a member of Ancestry for many years and not once have I had any bother getting in, and have had same password there since joining . Be grateful for any suggestions for an easy way out pls !
                                          sincerely, \Dolly

Why don't you ring them - office re-opens 4 January - 020 3326 6300  :)
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.

Thanks for that BumbleB, but thing is my subs end on the 8th and have to be cancelled at least 5 days before that ?   I will be going down to my bank soon as and will tell them not to do the transaction, hopefully that might do it.  Phew !  talk about blood pressure!

As BumbleB says, phone Findmypast tomorrow, explain the situation and get them to sort it.  If the payment goes through, then should be able to refund it, I've seen comments that they have done this via posts on Facebook.  I suspect your Bank will ask whether you have contacted FindMyPast anyway, so you may as well try that first.  If they won't sort it, only then approach your bank.

Hi Dolly,

on the sign in page, (below log in), try clicking 'forgotten your password?' - if they are like other sites, then they probably reset it and send you a new one via email.

hth,
happy new year,

Lisa
