SatNav,

Are those the details you have received in an email about your renewal as someone asked about the 20% reduction on Facebook and they were told they would have the reduction when they renewed theirs in April.

Hi SatNav

I also started in 2004, at £7.50


but for the last several years, new members have only been able to take out a 6 month membership ............... it's only us "oldies" who have been grandfathered into the 12 month membership.

I think it was about 2007 when that change came in


There have been, if you like, 2 levels of Standard Membership since then

1 year for £9.95
6 months for £9.95



and if an "oldie" doesn't renew within the 4 week grace period, they can only take out the 6 month membership.



OOOOOOOOOOOOPS


I've just noticed that you posted

"This offer expires on the 17th Mar 2011 Only £7.96"


That's new, isn't it?????


when they brought in the 20% offer, they said it was for an unlimited period.


sheeesh ...................... I think my renewal is April, I shall have to make sure I renew before St Patrick's Day then!

I'm not on continuous, because I wanted some control AND our credit cards have been changed so often in the last few years .......... by the companies, and for various reasons .... that I never know whether the card I used last year will have the same number this year!


But, they send me a reminder about a month before, and I make sure I renew before the deadline



I'm still paying £9.95 for 12 months.

Well, well they must have had a few messages

They have updated the posting with the following:



Just for clarification, the prices above refer to 6 month memberships.

All those currently on annual memberships will be able to remain on their annual membership at the price they are currently paying as long as you continue to renew before or within 4 weeks of your membership lapsing.

Can not remember the last time I looked at General Board and seldom look at Chat Board.

They really should have posted on all boards

GR posted this on both General and Chat .... but not apparently on Records, Tips, or TTF. So I'm doing it for them :)))


There have been some significant changes to the pricing on Genes Reunited today.

Platinum has now been reduced to £49.95, anyone who is currently a Platinum member and chooses to automatically renew will renew at the new price.

Current Standard members may continue to renew at the price they are currently paying. For new members and those who have let their membership expire, a Standard subscription costs £14.95.

If you are a Gold member you will continue to renew at the price you are currently paying with the option to upgrade to Platinum with a 10% discount in the last 4 weeks of your Gold subscription. Gold will no longer be available for purchase if you are not a current Gold member.
