ANCESTRY SITE (General)

I have just attempted to get onto the Ancestry site which those without subscriptions have always been allowed to use free of charge and found that all it now does it flash up the price list and ask for a subscription.

Does anyone know if it is just a glitch today? Or have they now closed it to those without subscriptions? I have used that site for years and never had this happen before. I have never had a subscription to it because my local library has one to it which enables me to check things further if I need to go further with things. It will, however, be a real shame if they have changed the criteria and made it only accessible to fee payers.

I passed the Forest of Dean yesterday on a motorway in a colleague's car and felt sad that I had to pass it by without being able to visit it!
