Member Since: June 2008 Posts: 3,659 Send Message	This ia an extract from Facebook announcement from Findmypast - this is the cunning plan 2. Return to findmypast.co.uk any time between 9am UK time on Friday, June 18 and 9am Saturday, June 19 and sign in: you can now even watch the match as well! 3. Once you have signed in, you will have 90 minutes to search and view the records for free at your leisure (and a time of your choosing) seems a much better idea

	I have not got a sub with find my past but i do buy credits for the 1911 census. I have a world sub on ancestry. I get mad when ancestry give away when i have paid in full.I make you right in complaining.I went on find my past tonight on the 1911 census.I still have credit but it came up it would cost me 10 credits or 30?

	I thought that might happen - haven' tried myself - all the more reason for 'subscribers' to ask for recompence!!! ??? Dea x Dea x

	Best of luck to anybody who can manage to get anything from the 1911 census from Findmy past.........it's been rubbish since the freebie started at 7pm...should have guessed it couldn't cope

	Whilst I applaud the site for giving 'free time'to everyone, and I DO hope they enjoy the benefits !!, I feel that we who have paid for subscription are missing out. I, for one, will be sending them an e-mail about what 'we' can have in recompence' Dea x

	from the website... If you're not football mad, there is something else to do during the World Cup – make it your goal to research your family history. You can view all the records* on findmypast for free during every England World Cup match – all you need to do is register. How it works: * 30 minutes before kick-off we'll stop charging for 3 hours, which should give you plenty of time to explore what we have to offer. * To get ready, make sure you've registered as you'll need to sign in to view the records. If you need help, take a look at our handy Getting Started guide and our video tutorials. When England play, you don't pay! Register now *All records available using our Full subscription (including the 1911 Census) will be free: Living Relatives searches and Memorial scrolls are not included

	So if you subscribe like myself to just the 1911, you should be able to view the rest for those few hours? jax

Member Since: June 2008 Posts: 3,659 Send Message	Just looked at FMP looks like it will be 3 x 3hours - see quote from web page :: " 30 minutes before kick-off we'll stop charging for 3 hours, which should give you plenty of time to explore what we have to offer. * To get ready, make sure you've registered as you'll need to sign in to view the records.

	Talanya - I just thought that everyone KNEW that England were going to do an action replay of 1966! If it means more free access, I might even see if I can find an English flag to fly myself! Wonder if a Union Jack would do!
