The website is confusing and hard to… The website is confusing and hard to use. It has too many buttons, most of which aren't clear on what they do, even after you click them. The search is very time wasting and badly designed. At first use, it initially searches very effectively to help build a tree, showing suggestions, but then this quickly changes to offering thousands of options. There are few filters and even when you've found a person (so you know the site has a record of them), that person record doesn't show up again in future searches!

Buyer beware!! Buyer beware!! Poor customer service. Company demonstrates no accountability. While when you activate your test kit, it says results can take six to eight weeks, true, however they send text messages with erroneous information and do not update their dashboard, SO, be prepared to call, multiple times to get any kind of an actual update, other than results are taking longer anticipated. My little girl has been waiting for a while to get these results with zero update to the estimated receipt of your results. Just use another company.

Ancestry and the Pandemic Ancestry was the answer for me during the pandemic. I couldn’t see my friends and family like I wished so that’s when I got to know my ancestors! I am still enjoying and getting better in my research and following the correct lineage. It has been my go to or way to get away from some of the clutter that sometimes surrounds us all!!

Confirmed the document evidence My DNA results took much longer to arrive than I expected, so I spent those weeks filling out my family tree. When the results arrived, I felt that they affirmed what I was finding through the document evidence. I was impressed that the system estimates what portions of my background come from my paternal vs. maternal side.

Strange things were happening to my… Strange things were happening to my account on ancestry.Someone is sharing multiple copies of the same records to my sources in my trees. I delete them next day there back. They won't stop I report it to Ancesty. I am wasting time deleting these records. Ancestry blames me said it is because I accept a member tree hint. I then shut off member tree hints. Someone shares a 1930 obituary to present to my personal profile source. I delete it. It comes back over and over. I start to think someone might be sending me a threatening message. Ancestry has no explanation. I reported the obituary to ancestry they make a report. I don't need the stress so I decided to delete all my trees and stop my membership. Every time I deleted a tree a message would pop up you can't delete this tree it doesn't belong to you
