Will leave it a couple of days and will try again if it still doesn't work then I'll get my OH to sign up
and hopefully that should do the trick.

Will report back

Thanks Sandra for the update

I was still having difficulty and getting the message…….there seems to be a problem with your order
my OH suggested removing my card details and re entering them (exactly the same card expiry date etc.)  hey presto it’s worked and I’ve got the great deal again for another year - a big thank you  :)

I have tried all the options above and even used a VPN but cannot get the 50% off or a 12 month subscription option.  ???

I’ve used it very recently and it still works (if you’re in the uk, anyway).

I cancelled my ancestry auto renewal then when it had lapsed ( you show as a guest- all your trees etc are still there though) you log in to ancestry then open another page and use the link on this second page. You seem to need ancestry to be open already for the link to work. Try that if you haven’t. It won’t work if you have a current subscription ..fingers crossed

It does seem to be temperamental at times. If you have already had a subscription, make sure you cancelled auto renew and that you are showing as a guest. It works better on a laptop. Several people in other groups have had problems, left it a couple of days, tried again and it works.
