Belfast City Council burial site update

There has been a minor update to the Belfast City Council burials website at www.belfastcity.gov.uk/burialrecords/, which holds burial records for Belfast City, Roselawn and Dunbdonald Cemeteries. The changes are minor, the main one being that the search screen is now offered on a pop up screen once you click on the Search for burial records link (worth flagging in case you have a pop up blocker, not sure if it is an issue, but forewarned and all that!).

There also appears to be a new page stating a refund policy for the site which notes: "We don't issue refunds for images of burial records, even those records which may not be legible or suitable due to their age. Please make sure that you check the record details before you buy the image. View our Terms and Conditions for online services". Once or twice in the past I have had issues downloading images, but the staff in Belfast have always been more than obliging when contacted for the respective issues to be resolved.
