Good question Ruskie!
Very annoying indeed, if it wasn’t for the fact my DNA is linked to my family tree I’d not bitter to renew with them!
Perhaps if enough people complain to them they might see the errors of their ways!

Hi
I don't know why Ancestry doesn't offer a 12 month sub for Australia.
But why not just use the same link for the world wide sub?
It's a bargain and world wide means the same in UK and AUS!

I looked on the ancestry.co.uk site and that isn’t showing any annual subscriptions either, but yes, the £89.99 annual sub is a lot cheaper, and I am looking into taking up that offer.  :)

If it helps, a friend used the offer successfully yesterday to get a 12 month world wide sub.
NB
Her existing sub auto renewal had been cancelled a couple of weeks prior to the renewal date.

She used that until the sub ran out .

When the existing sub ran out, checked her account and could see she was now a 'registered guest'

At that stage, used the link and is now back up and running.

Doing it in those steps, in that order, has worked just fine for years.

Thanks so much for the link and tips. My membership is due to expire in a number of days. I cancelled my membership and used the link to buy a 12 month Worldwide membership for £89.99. I received a pro rata refund for the remainder of my original membership.

It's half the price I paid last year and the savings can go towards purchasing certificates and other records. Thanks again!

Hello, does anyone know if this code still works? I’m just getting the 6 month options.
Thank you

Just used that Facebook link (from Ireland using a VPN to pretend I was in the UK) and got one year worldwide for 89.99 sterling. Delighted.
