Terrific, pleased you were successful.   :)  Thank you very much for letting everyone know the offer is still available.  ;D

Here in Ireland, using that link, the best I am being offered is €109.98 for six months on the top product, €75.99 for just Ireland/UK.

Putting on a VPN and pretending in to be in the UK, I got the same offer in sterling, but with an additional option of a 'Key UK Census Records Only' sub.

I was offered a better deal by phone (€199.99 for the top product for a year). Still outrageously expensive for what you get.

That's unusual in my experience. If someone is selling something for 100 Euros they tend to price it at £100 in the UK.

Not sure why you couldn't get the discount as people in a group where I am an Admin have had no trouble - it includes people from Ireland as well as the US, Australia and New Zealand. Had your subscription expired and were you showing as a guest, it doesn't work otherwise?

Yes my sub has expired. Yes I was logged out, though it would not let me log in as guest, only using my last username or one I used to use years ago. Even when I made a new account to try get a free trial it kept switching me back to one of the old accounts.
They also would not honour a deal they were supposed to be doing for members of the Irish Genealogical Research Society.

Perhaps logging out was the problem?

Whenever I have taken advantage of this offer, once the sub has expired I log in (with my longstanding, hasn't changed) username and look at the account settings.
In there,  my status in the membership section  has changed from 'Worldwide Membership' to 'Registered Guest'.
 I stay logged in and click the offer link  and it lets me pay the reduced price. I've used that same method for a good few years now. Hand in the air, if I didn't use the link I probably wouldn't re-sub at all.

I am logged in under my old account, it is showing me as registered guest and the best offer is 6 months for €109.99. I was offered €199.99 for a year when I rang.

Mind you, I am managing fine without it so far. I don't even miss the useless hints. They seem to have nothing but DNA offers at the moment.

Yessss! I got it. Worldwide subscription for £89.99 for a year. I obtained a VPN, set it to show United Kingdom, then logged into my Ancestry account. When I clicked on the link in this thread, the page with the half price offers appeared for the first time. My previous subscription expired 2 days ago! I'm so pleased! Thank you for the link, and to the knowledgeable person who told me about VPNs.
