Like most genealogy sites subscription to service requires credit card details after which it is impossible to cancel or adjust method. Client has no access to options for account so host retains complete control and elects to automatically renew subscriptions. Only way is for client to request cancellation by email and depend on the goodwill of host. In my opinion this is the biggest hurdle to using any of these sites. It is not that they have not heard of methods for user access to their account as is widely used; it is that they deliberately choose to deny users an easy option to account cancellation. For this reason I will never touch any genealogy sites. They are all the same.
In summary, I would not recommend Ancestry.com.au to a friend.
