Maggie's link is only for new subscribers. Doees one have to pretend to be a new customer to use it?

I think you would just have to cancel your sub or let it expire before trying.

Try UK top deals and see if there's something there.

I did in January and got half price worldwide.

Which ever link I click on it defaults to one set of rates - including £74.99 for 6 months. I have tried signing out, to no avail.

I'm cautiously excited.

I decided to revisit my emails from Ancestry.

I discontinued my membership and checked the offer would work straight away, which it did, but as we were so busy left it for a few days, after which it wouldn't work.

I found an email asking me to finish checking out.

This is what it says:

Your order summary
Premium membership
£59.99+ tax /year
Annual plan
£119.99+ tax/year starting 22 May 2023
Select Payment
xxxxxxxxx

Bill to:
xxxxx

By clicking Order now, you agree that:

Automatic Renewal: You will automatically be charged £119.99 plus applicable taxes every twelve months beginning 22 May 2023 until you cancel. To cancel your membership, visit Account Settings or contact us at least two days before your membership renews to avoid being charged for the next billing cycle. You may cancel your membership during the first 14 days for a full refund.
Price for renewals is subject to change (with notice).
You have read and agreed to our Renewal and Cancellation Terms.
Order now


Do you agree I get charged £59.99 now and thereafter £119.99 starting from next May?

I don't want to click on it and get a nasty shock!

Yes! Finally, I renewed for a year at £59.99.

Now I can look at the Sussex registers.

You just cancel before the end of the year and look for other offers

Haha!

I renewed yesterday at £59.99 for a year.

I've just received an email offering me 4 months for £20!

I note they no longer advertise the year-long deals.
