Thanks Alan, but I do have 24 credits. Tried again still no joy.

Hi David:.I

I successfully retrieved my credits the other day, so I went back to view the transaction. Without thinking, I entered summer16 rather than the code summer(space)16 that was posted on the board. If that doesn't work, you might want to send them a message. Would your credits have expired? If you don't use them within a year, they get locked rather than deleted.

http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/Conte ... .aspx?1253 "If you still have credits in your account but are being directed to the payment page to purchase more, then your credit expiry time has elapsed.

Credits are valid for one year - any unused ones remain in your account. To re activate these, you would need to purchase further credits."

Far as I know the code is summer16 no spaces, but nothing in my receipt from SP mentions same - I didn't realise you had to have credits - thanks for mentioning that Alan - probably pure luck that I had some.

A member of another forum has contacted SP and the response was:--

“The code was only active for a set time as the promotion has now ended, the voucher code no longer valid for use but do keep checking our newsletters for any / all other site updates and news.”

I haven't been able to find an original source for the 27 Aug expiry date quoted.

Ahhh found this on Facebook

'No, sorry, it's no longer valid.

The voucher code was just for the attendees of a one-off class in genealogy that was being held, and it has since expired - it wasn't a general offer.'
