Linda, I have a two year subscription to WWV. I have a previous sub to Genealogy Helper; before it became part of WWV. My card showed no charges above the $49 for this sub. I have been very pleased with this sub; and have ordered products from them as well. I had a bit of trouble signing in (a clerical mis.) A quick phone call took care of it. I have found that any ? or concern has always been handled immediately and with courtesy. I really enjoy the site; as it builds daily. I was surprised to read of you're unhappy experience, however, I had a similar one with Ancestry several yrs back. I know how frustrating an incident like this can be. Where does the $144 come from? I recieve their free news letter; this is thei r current offer. WorldVitalRecords.com's current special offer: Buy a two-year subscription for $74.90 and receive a one-year subscription to the Genealogical Helper for FREE will continue until March 5th! The very best of luck to you.
