Question on Ancestry.com access: I see that FTM includes 1 - 3 months of access, but I wonder, do they make you give them credit card info to get this free access, i.e. try to hook you in anyway?

I saw the following statement in someone else's review of FTM 10. Hope it helps. "Do note that when you sign up for your "free" month with this software, you will be required to enter billing information and they will start stealth charging you when the free month is up - so watch for that. "

I never heard of the program you have but family tree maker 2012 gives you acess to ancestry.com and it allows you to search their data base for info you may not have. I truely like this program. I hope this was helpful.

Read my post in reviews, same issue. I bet you used the Free shipping also. Common Carrier is going to be slow but it sounds like you'll be a month also.

You can use it by itself, but it will only have the data you input. I have mine set to auto sync with Ancestry so that either will update the other. Then if I am somewhere without internet, like a small county courthouse, I can do my research, input it on my laptop, and sync it later.

90 Days, and you have to register on their website within 30. Sorry this answer took so long, had to dig out the manual... ;P

You get the first three months free and then they bill you monthly. When you sign up for the three months, you have to give them your credit card number.

In our application, we do not have to choose credit card or put the cursor in the CC field, we just have to be on the page where we enter payments, and scan the card. It fills in names, cc, and expire date. It works very well for us for much less than others.

Off my head apple covers it for one year and applecare two additional years ! I think the 90 days is for Software support as far as calling them up person to person help ! Another thing to remember is several Credit Cards that you purchase with Ex. ) Amex Gold will cover purchase for additional year etc.

If you go on there wbsite theres a plan for $50 a month. It says you get unlimited talk, txt, and web. I think you just have to give then ur credit card number and they just charge you every month

gosh it has been a while since I did this and I don't believe I had to. I think they just ask for your email address and home address. I dont think you need your SS# since you just pay as is not based on your credit.

It came with 20 minutes free for activation, but we use the 40 minutes/3 month option with double-minutes to get 80 minutes (19.99). It has been all I need. You will need to set up an account though and keep it active or you will lose the number. Mine has cost me about 6-7 bucks per month.

I already just answered this, but was very annoyed to see that you printed my name in full - whereas you only used the first name or initials for other responses. Also as you did use my name without permission, then at least give me the benefit of using my web site www.sabinashalom.com which will enable otjers to reach me. Thank you. sabinashalom.com

As long as your files are not from the original Family Tree maker you should be alright. The only thing is is that you can not go back to the older version of FTM unless you make a copy. Also it is recommended that you use the backup file if you have lots of pictures and documents because a GED does not save them but will reference them as a source.

I see what your saying. I checked it out and it was under home...vudy.you need to register first. It doesn't ask for any credit info.

I am using an ever older version of FTM -- 3.02 -- and I have the same concern. Will I be able to import my data to FTM 2009? Hope someone will have the answer to this. Thank you.

Careful. They only gave me 60 days, not the advertised 90 and you need to end the subscription if you do not want to be charged the $10/month after 60 days. Also I expect they will add taxes and fees on top of that without letting you know how much they are in advance. Thats what they do with other charges.
