You could put up a thread on Records Board and offer to use your credits to do free searches for other people

I don't think you can transfer the credits to anyone else.


are you sure that you cannot use them for your own research?

Hi Janet,

I doubt this would work but could you email GR and ask to see if they can transfer them to Scotlands people credits (I think the same company owns them) and say that you've made a mistake in buying them.

Did GR advertising give you the impression that it could help you with your Scottish ancestors?
