Has anyone recently updated their Annual Essentials Membership, if so how much is it?

I have just renewed world one, but this from ancestry site
Essentials Membership contains all the essential UK records needed to start researching your family history - such as Birth, Marriage & Death Indexes and Census records. It costs £83.40 a year, or, if you are a monthly member, £10.95 a month.


Premium Membership contains all of the above, but also includes UK records that predate civil registration (1837), such as Parish & Probate records. It costs £107.40 a year, or, if you are a monthly member, £12.95 a month.


Worldwide Membership, you get all the benefits of Premium, as well as access to Ancestry's global record collection - featuring records from USA, Canada, Australia and more. You can also access our Irish record collection. World membership costs £155.40 a year, or, if you are a monthly member, £18.95 a month.

Thanks Jo, the reason I asked is because my B.I.Law said he upgraded straight after his automatic renewal and was refunded £107.40 and thought it had gone up from £83.40.

His original subscription must have been the Premium and not the Essential then?
