PHGeni is one big cash grab Geni literally promotes itself as having one family tree that connects all of humanity, but to be able to join that one family tree, I have to purchase a PRO subscription (costs $119.40 per year). Their business model is about PAYWALLING the ability the join the one family tree that it is famous for, effectively making it a CRIPPLEWARE. Their goal is to not help people explore their ancestors in one giant family tree, but rather gather as much REVENUE and PROFIT as they can. Geni is a CASH GRAB.

GBWon't give money back and no contact whatsoever Seems I was a numpty and signed up for the free trial with this lot and thought I'd put reminder in my calendar to cancel before the14 days was up. Didn't get my notice and they took the money from my account. I have now been trying to contact them to cancel and get a refund by sending emails and logging a ticket but without a reply. They have taken more than GBP100 for a worthless subscription. Don't be silly like me and even try them because as others have said there isn't anything worth trying. Out of all the Ancestry/DNA websites out there, Geni is by far the worst.

BEThink twice before investing in a DNA kit with Geni I have been a long time member of Geni.com, which is currently owned by the private company MyHeritage. Geni offers so-called MyHeritage DNA kits, and I bought one through MyHeritage. However, when I tried to upload my data to Geni, I received the message that DNA kits bought on MyHeritage cannot be uploaded on Geni. I am very disappointed, because DNA kits from other (external) companies like Family Tree DNA can be imported, but their own Myheritage DNA kits not. Other Genealogy companies like Geneanet DO offer the option to upload DNA from MyHeritage, AncestryDNA, Living DNA, etc... I have therefore decided to abandon my Geni & MyHeritage accounts, and to transfer all my data to Geneanet.
