    Just resurrecting this thread. I ended up cancelling my membership, as it was a luxury that I could no longer afford. None of the suggestions in previous posts work anymore but has anyone managed to get a discount on membership recently? 
    I hate having to barter for services. I use MyHeritage for which I pay about half of the advertised price. I always insist that autorenewal is disabled. At the end of each year, my membership lapses, and I get a flurry of emails offering increasing discounts over the days and weeks of the service's lapsing. At the one-month mark, I receive a telephone call from Israel and could then agree on an amicable price.

    The other possibility is to maintain a GEDCOM file enabling one to move between providers.

    I have to barter with the Daily Telegraph and Sky similarly. Many of these service organisations have higher prices for their "suckers". 
    I have osteoarthritis in my hands so I speak my messages into a microphone using Dragon. Some people make "typos" but I often make "speakos".
  • I cancelled my membership with Ancestry in December, was just offered £20 for a 4 month Worldwide subscription (I click on the links everytime I get an email, to let their algorithm know I'm still interested). Might have taken this offer, but too busy to use it over the summer months!

    Daily Telegraph is free with the Press Reader app and a local library login 💪
    As are MANY other newspapers and magazines.
    Works very well on iPad or other tablets.
    Not so handy for the crossword, but still a good money saver 👍
    Plan for tomorrow, enjoy today!

    Yes but how much do you pay for MyHeritage?
