Military Chat

Hi, guys, before my ancestry subscription expired I managed to print off my granddad and several other family member war records before moving onto findmypast and finding more not on ancestry but I only have paypal and no credit card, could someone please send me the image/s of the following attestation papers or their service numbers there so I can write off to Glasgow where all surviving service men's papers are stored.
John James Stokes 1905-1943, royal artillery attestation papers 1935
Samuel Hayward Stokes 1909-1946 royal artillery attestation papers (also his baptism record Doncaster st james)
Sidney stokes 1919-1994 royal artillery attestation papers
Bruce Edwin Kingdon born 1919, died 1944
Unsure about this one but my great granddad served in the sea merchants and there's a record of john kingdon born barnstaple 1855 sea merchant record in1873 that matches his father.
I know I'm being cheeky in asking for help getting these but any assistance is greatly appreciated. Best.

Check that you are entitled to send for the records

Sorry, don't have a sub to FMP. It might be best if you added that to your title.
As long as you have the exact date of birth, you may get away without reference numbers

As an aside, I think you can only purchase the records by cheque. They are £30 per set.
Since so many sites require a credit or debit card, have you considered loading money onto a prepaid card? Moneysupermarket lists a few providers

TBH, we link our pay-pal account to a credit card. It provides an extra layer of security. We never charge against it unless we know we have the cash & it gets paid off when the bill comes in.

Thanks for your usual awesomeness, guys. I've had some crossed wires with the military record service before, I trusted £30 to the royal mail delivery then the Glasgow record office phoned me back last month saying my order was being returned for sending the wrong paperwork in even though I emailed the office beforehand who told me to send exactly that. Oh, well, I'll keep trying to flesh out my descendants military history. Best
