I got Worldwide for £89.99 using the link about three weeks ago.

Do ensure that you cancel the Auto Renewal by completing each presented screen and do check that a confirmation of the cancellation is received by eMail.

I have already cancelled Auto Renewal for next year and in our Account Settings the membership type has EXPIRING in a coloured block.

I’ve just cancelled my membership that runs out in Feb 2024…

I’ve received an email to say that cancellation is confirmed.. I can carryon using it until the sub runs out..

When I use the link to create a new sub it’s only showing the 6 mth ones not annual… am I doing something wrong..

If I’ve cancelled it why’s it still allowing me to use it until Feb… no offer of refund pro rata…

Any advice/ help would be much appreciated.. thanks in advance.

Over the years I have used the link, its only shown the offer when my account has actually expired and is showing me as a 'registered guest' account. I know of a couple of people who have successfully used the link recently but they have only tried it 'after' the sub has expired (though did the cancellation a while before the expiry date to ensure it didn't auto renew).
I have not ever experienced the partial refund scenario though others have.

Annual Worldwide for £89.99
https://www.ancestry.co.uk/checkout/mli?direct=1&quantities=1&flow=3&offers=O-24532&rType=11

Annual UK Premium for £59.99
https://www.ancestry.co.uk/checkout/mli?direct=1&quantities=1&flow=3&offers=O-24531&rType=11

Try logging out of Ancestry first before using either of the above links.  Once logged out, click on the link, which hopefully will show the discounted amount at the top of the page.  Sign in from that page and it should take you directly to the payment page, showing the amount you need to pay.  I've just tried it whilst signed out and it is still showing the discounted price.  Hope it works for you!

You are cancelling the auto renew, not the subscription itself. You have paid for that, so can continue using it until it expires.
When it eventually does expire, try the link again.

Thanks Sugarfizzle… my concern is that by the time it runs out in February they will have changed their set up to 6 monthly and the link won’t be able to be used… but I’ll just have to wait and see!

Mine is due at the beginning of January, I may just miss out on it as well.
I'm trying to think of a way round it.

I am only offered a six monthly subscription on Ancestry.com.au. There are no annual subs.

I am miffed because I agreed to autorenew after a special offer and thought I was agreeing to a new annual subscription … but it was only for three months! It was my fault, but I’m sure it wasn’t obvious when I renewed - it’s left a bit of a bad taste, so I’ve cancelled.

Why no annual subscriptions?
