Awesome to find new family connections.
I get annoyed with so many emails.
You send emails about discrepancies but no clues on how to fix them.
Why can't you email the owner of the account to tell them if they have spelt the family name wrong.

The representative who called me was friendly, knowledgeable, and presented his product without pressure. He gave me time to think it over and I appreciated that.
All very helpful
I'm still not the best with using the computor.
Some days I discover information and others I hit a brick wall.
Overall I'm very happy with what I find.
My family tree has grown and grown.
So very happy .
thankyou
Great Ancestral Layout
I am able to locate family members easily on my heritage. They have access to additional sites as Family Search and a Billion Graves. I appreciate the Smart Matches and Discovery except for the newspaper stories that do not provide adequate information in the initial note. Overall I think My Heritage is great.

My only critism is that your call centre people should check world time zones before calling overseas.
Mia was lovely to talk to.
Useful service, but too many extra paid add-ons
I recently purchased a yearly subscription and overall I find MyHeritage to be a very useful service. Building and exploring my family tree is enjoyable, and the record search features work well. The platform offers a lot of valuable tools for anyone interested in family history.
However, what I find frustrating is the constant push for additional paid features. Right after purchasing the annual plan, I was immediately offered more paid add-ons and upgrades. It creates the impression that even with a full subscription, you still don’t really have full access. I would prefer clearer subscription options and fewer aggressive upsell prompts.
I also think the website and the family tree interface could look more modern. Functionally it works well, but the design feels a bit outdated.
Overall, I rate it 4 stars because it is genuinely useful, but there is definitely room for improvement.

I had completely forgotten how close my renewing my account with you.
The lady on the phone (sorry, I didn't get her name) was trying to get me to renew. I have to say she was one of the best online sellers I have ever come across!
I explained that I have been with Findmypast for 15 years and wanted to think about renewing, but perhaps not quite now.
She rang the following day with an offer I couldn't refuse, so here we are at the beginning of year two. Please give the lady who spoke to me a 'pat on the back' as I really didn't think I wanted to renew and she changed that to a purchase!
