Am I missing something here?
Surely the National Archivist is a private company and is NOT The National
Archives at Kew!!!!

Important Announcement
Further to our announcement earlier in the year regarding the purchase of
our
archives by
1837online.com, we are pleased to announce that the
transition of the archives to the
1837online.com website will take place in
the next few weeks.
>From Thursday 6 April 2006 the National Archivist will no longer be
taking new
registrations or purchases for credits. If you already have valid
credits with us, you may continue to use these as normal on our website.
On Thursday 20 April 2006 the National Archivist website will be closing
down and
your account will be transferred to
1837online.com along with any
units you have remaining. From this date you will be able to search the
archives on the
1837online.com website.
What will happen to my account?
1837online.com will create a new account for you automatically using the
email
address with which you registered on National Archivist as your user
name and contact email. You will then be emailed with details of how to
activate your account.
Tip: It is worth setting your email account to allow emails from the
1837online.com
domain to ensure you receive the email giving you details of
the changes. If you have not received an email by 25 April 2006, you should
contact 1837online.com's customer helpdesk on 0870 7771837 or email them on
info(a)1837online.com.
Customers with live credits on National Archivist on 20 April will have
their
credits converted to 1837online units at a rate of two units per
credit. Every registered customer will also receive details of a very
special introductory offer to
1837online.com.
If you are already registered with
1837online.com using the same email
address as
registered on National Archivist, your live units will simply be
transferred to your existing account.
We thank you for working with us to ensure that the transfer of accounts
is as
smooth as possible and look forward to welcoming you to continued
successful searching of our archives in their new home.

Previous Announcement
We are delighted to announce that
1837online.com has acquired the archives
currently live on our website
www.nationalarchivist.com. We believe this is
great news for all family historians and genealogists who can only benefit
from the merger of these marvellous archives.
This brilliant 'one stop' genealogy resource will be available in a few
months. Your National Archivist credits will be converted to
1837online.com
units when the merger takes place and you will then be able to use your
remaining credits to search all the archives combined on
www.1837online.com.
