List of parishes covered by the Gloucestershire, Bristol baptism, marriage and burial indexes on FMP. Note that there may be gaps, e,g, a start date might be 1600, and the end date 1900, but there could be a register for 1750-1790 missing. https://www.

It is a bit confusing.
To start with, regard anything on the FamilySearch site as being nothing to do with the SoG. i.e. if it says that you need to visit a LDS FHC to access a record, then that's what you have to do.
However, a film for a particular parish may be available to view at the SoG.
e.g. the FS site says that to see the image for the baptism of John Smith on 1 January 1801 in Aldwinkle (Northants) you have to visit a FHC but you don't have a FHC nearby, then go to the FamilySearch catalog (sic)
https://www.familysearch.org/catalog/search
type Aldwinkle into the place name box, and from the drop-down list of family history centers select Society of Genealogists.
It then says that there are two films at the SoG, one of BTs 1701-1899, and the other PRs 1653-1837.
ADDED. You can then search the SoG's catalogue to see if they have any further records for the place you're interested in. https://

Interesting but not suprising really.
There isn't any legal obligation under the existing 'ecommerce (distance selling)' regulations to make a refund, since you'll find a clause within their terms which cites an exemption under the rules to refund within a 'cooling off period' which recognises that for services delivered digitally it is more than possible a user can fully use the services provided and then, as they cannot possible return them (as you would physical goods) be left with a situation where the service has been taken for no payment.
i.e. if you want to retain your cooling off rights, where such exemptions exist, you will not be able to make use of the full services -a catch 22 in effect.
That being said most providers will look at what you have used and make a goodwill gesture, however if you've used a lot then they will decline to offer this of course.
I am always interested in how services are described & advertised where shortcomings are detected, it seems more & more sites are going along the gold/diamond/bronze sort of membership levels and splitting previously useful collections up into premium levels which become all the more confusing for the user.

My first stop off place when trying to find out what records are available for an unfamiliar area or place, plus the relevant archives, FHSs, etc, is still GENUKI.
