You must read the fine print. It tells you that you must inform them in writing that you want to discontinue service. You should give them at least thirty days notice minimum or you will be charged. Many people are being taken to the cleaners by them with this little tactic.

It is imperative to review your credit card statements as soon as they arrive. Your credit card company isn't as likely to help you resolve a disputed charge if you wait more than 30 days to dispute it. Amy

Speaking of ancestry.com...what's the deal with not being able to view 1930 census images from ohio. I get an error everytime. Does anyone else have this problem?
