Debs, Are you sure you signed up for a year? The quote of $14.49 USD is for 6 months . If you mess around with your country of residence you can see the rates in the various currencies. Rose

Isn't this another of their 'market testing' thingies? See how many people will pay for six months at twelve month prices? OC

The FAQ says 'If you choose to upgrade to full membership it costs £9.95 for 6 months'. No mention of the price to renew an existing full membership. Rose

I think this idea of letting people onto this site to do research ,get in touch with other members and use most of the facilities is unfair to paying members,we are paying for them. These people on the fringe should be paying half fees ,which would swell the genes coffers without sticking the extra fees on full members bills. Registering onto genes is NOT free,WE are paying the bill .Fred.
