Ancestry.com has always called and also sent me e-mails to let me know ahead of time when my subscription is up for renewal. This is the part of the e-mail that tells you how to get in touch with them. I've never had a problem with this. If you wish to cancel your subscription, please call 1-800-ANCESTRY between 8:00AM and 5:00PM MST, BEFORE you are automatically renewed. Please select prompt number 4.
