I paid £9.95 in August for a year, but obviously they have changed it. Christine |

I am not going to upgrade but don't understand why they quote different prices to some people. Christine |

I had that show up on Friends reunited so it may be a slipup on their part seeing as they are sister sites,but when i went into accounts [of both] they showed up as being the full year ,not six months Fred. |

that is some mark up from £7.50 to £19 in a year. Wonderful ITV. Well if it goes up to that for existing members (&I didn't think I would ever say this) I would not join. ann Glos Ann Glos |

They say that they are doing a lot of advertising to attract new members but I don't see how doubling the price will attract them. Christine |

I suppose it just shows that they are ignorant of what is going on in the genealogical world and just interested in making money. A pity the papers can't get hold of it, that would deter people from paying if they knew how much they have put it up. It was predictable as soon as they took over. Ann Glos |
