Findmypast subscription
« on: Tuesday 19 August 25 15:12 BST (UK) »
Hi

My Findmypast subscription expired on 15th of this month and I remembered to cancel auto renewal last week.  I have been patient and waited to see if they contact me.  I have just received an email offering 50% discount.   😊

Thought I would just let people know it works if you wait a few days

A useful reminder Sue. It was back in April when I got 50% discount as I reported here.
I do not think anyone needs to or should pay the full price now that it has got so high.

Ellenmai, I suggest you stop the auto renewal of your prescription now. When they ask why you did it you could tell them you cannot afford it as I did.
My OH had an Ancestry subscription and did not take my advice to stop the auto renewal months ago. Last month it auto renewed at the full price. The price of a nice meal out wasted.

I have been sent this link about 50% FindMyPast subscriptions.

https://www.lostcousins.com/newsletters2/lateaug25news.htm

It was suppposed to have run out yesterday but was still working earlier today. Looks like you might only be able to get one month at a time but still worth using if anyone wanted to try out FindMyPast.

Sorry, should have added offer no longer just for Lost Cousin's members.
New and lapsed subscribers only though.

Excellent bit of information and presumably their best offer ever!
FindMyPast took enough money off me when they were still www.1837online.com, back in the day.
Many thanks for this info
