Is there a web page which explains how we can take advantage of the free access, please?

Hi,

Would like to get access, only pay for UK records.  Have tried searching USA, which states I need world wide payment.

Can you give a connection that I might try or is this offer only if you have world sub?

Thanks

Spendlove, try changing the url from .co.uk to .com. I don't have a sub at the moment but my login defaults to .co.uk and it wanted me to pay for a worldwide sub to see the passenger lists that looked to be of interest.  Changed the url to ancestry.com and did the search again, worked fine (although it suggested as I am in the UK I might want to use their .co.uk site - absolutely not!)

How do you say "Absolutely not"?  In my case, it switches to Ancestry.co.uk almost instantly.
