I have cancelled and renewed my subscription a few times as no point paying if I am not researching at the time. As already mentioned, you will still be a free member. Any records should still be saved in your account, you just may not be able to view them unless you renew.

Before you pay, phone them and plead poverty. With a bit of luck they will offer you a discount. You could mention that if you join through the National Trust web page, you would get a 25% discount.

The Ad is at the bottom of this page - you may have to wait until it cycles.

You should find all is well. My 2nd cousin allowed her membership to lapse for a few months then just resumed again, no problems. You see this when you get Ancestry matches but can't send a message to the tree owner. (As happened with me!).

As with GR, you are still a member, albeit a 'free' member. Your account is not deleted as such.

It is my understanding that you will be no longer able to accesss any records which require a subscription, including any saved in your shoebox.

Records and services which do not require a subscription are not affected i.e. 1881 census transcripts.

As far as I know - although stand to be corrected if this is not the case - if you re-subscribe then you will regain access automatically.

I.m not sure thats answerable unless someone has been in the same situation. They are very helpful .and of course want to keep customers, so why dont you give them a ring and ask them .

They have a UK contact mumber on the home page i think. If not then if you come back i will take a look at my account to find it for you.
