O well - will see what happens next year - at least I am still only paying half of what current members are charged

thanks for the info

I set it as continuous in 2008 so that I did not forget to pay!! Terrible memory these days

The 20% discount was at the same time that find my past was offering 20% discount for renewal.

they offered it to me in the email they sent to tell me that my membership was due

I keep my membership at Single, and have done since I joined. I regularyl check to make sure it hasn't been automatically reverted to Continuous.

how do you get a loyalty bonus Sylvia?

I joined in April 2004 too and am still being charged £9.25 (continuous membership) - no option of loyalty bonus

I originally paid £9.95 in 2005 for the year and was on continuous membership. Owing to severe illness in my family I left last year and when I rejoined last week they charged me £19.95.

NB do not lapse for too long.

I was also charged £7.50 for the eyar .... which was £9.95 with a loyalty bonus deduction.


Mind you ...... I had to go round the hills to get that, as they initially charged me in US $ because I don't live in the UK

Canada doesn't use US $, we have our own currency .......... so I complained to GR about having to pay more in currency exchange charges.!

My renewal came up in April. I'm on continuous membership and was charged 7.50 for the year.

Well if you are on continuous membership and a basic member it shouldnt be £19.95. Would certainly query that

ive been standard member since 2003, my renewal due in july, ive just been quoted £19.95 for a year.

oh, I wish!!!

The advert I saw was on ITV 4 last night, lots of lovely ancestors knocking on the door and calling in for a chat. If only...........!

Sue

Yes , I've seen those adverts too. very misleading

Mine is renewal in April at continuous 12 months so either I get the 20% off or it is goodbye as I do far more re my tree off this site.

I would love all my ancient relatives to turn up, we could have a family get together, there would be so much to talk about.

Don't see those adverts here, wonder if it is on youtube?

Persie
Edit: yes it is on youtube so will have a look.

I've just seen an advert on TV for Genes Reunited showing lots of ancient relatives turning up, and it said you could find them all ' for free' . No mention of it being a trial offer or anything, so now what are they up to?

You're welcome, Hilary :-)

I shall decide in April whether or not to renew; it seems a lot of money to pay again later if I do not renew.

Thanks Joy, I paid £9.95 last year, will take note when my renewal comes up, which won't be long now.

Hilary, from what was posted in reply to me in face book, whatever I have paid previously I shall pay this time minus 20% which is the same loyalty discount in find my past for renewal. I expect there is the 20% discount as both sites are under the same ownership.
Sorry, not very good grammar :-)

What has happened to the £7. something price for loyalty they were saying. Has that now been changed. I have been a member since 2004 & up for renewal 15th March. So am I to believe if I continue I should get it for £7.96. Will have to watch when renewal comes up.
Hilary

They did indeed tell me that, Christine :-)

I came back to post that I've just realised that I might have mis-read it as applying to everyone.

But that it was indeed applying only to SatNav ................. the 4 week warning!
