Hi I think your friend should contact FMP and sort it out with them. The amount he has been charged is way less than the rates quoted on the various FMP websites. One possibility is that he has a now defunct subscription with limited access. When FMP expanded outside of the UK I think that subscriptions to the likes of Ireland and Australia were separate subscriptions, maybe your friend has an old subscription that isn’t sold now but can be renewed. In theory renewing means continuing what he already had so what access did he have previously?

That makes sense, he did have a subscription a while ago. $59.99 seems very cheap to me for a worldwide subscription. Vanessa All records are subject to error.
