Not as it seems

Very good app, the photo app is the best part of it. So I signed up for the 14 day trial, I wanted to see, as per the word trial what it would be like. During this time I cancelled the subscription because I didn’t want £140 to come out of my account on that date, still enjoying the trial with the full expectation that I could see what the app was like. Then I receive an email saying they’ve cancelled my trial usage. So it’s not a trial at all, it’s a commitment to buy. Very dodgy if you ask me. I’d avoid this app completely.

My MyHeritage review

I downloaded this app because I wanted to find out who my ancestors were. I would have used ancestry but it costs money. It asked me to put in my name, mums name, dads name, and my grandparents name in. I then expected it to tell me my ancestors. But no, it crashed and it won’t let me on the app, I uninstalled and I did the same thing, put in all the names and it crashed and won’t let me on it again, I just wanted to express my feelings here.

THEY STOLE MY MONEY£89 even after I had cancelled

The company has constantly trying to take money out of my account I have pictures to prove all of this then as soon as there was some money in my account they just took it even though I had cancelled my subscription for the free trial
It is now impossible to get my money back!! NO HELP FROM THE TEAM OF THIS APP OR APPLE
DO NOT PURCHASE!! Terrible customer service.

This is a reasonable app, but the support is terrible. Weeks to get a response regarding reinstating ignored duplicates only for my question not to be answered. Tried again, but again no response, apart from a standard ‘holding’ message.

Be wary of free trial offer

Signed up to the free trial and then cancelled very soon after , within the free trial period . Have since been charged and can find no way to contact my heritage or re cancel . Having to go through Apple to try and get my money back .

Pricing!!

The price for this app is way too expensive! If it had the option of month pay then i would happily pay £5 a month for it but its near to £200-£250 for the year which quite a lot of people cannot afford to pay outright! I only want to have my family members animated to move so wish they have a selection of what you van have as part of a monthly bundle that can be edited

They are fraudsters do not give them payment information

They renewed and upgraded a subscription that I did not want or us. they took £226.80 which they refuse to return... they are liars and cheats do not give them any financial information.

Disappointed

I had great time and year using the my heritage site, however the automatic subscription was a lot more than I anticipated and not having worked since March 2019 due to COVID19 I cannot afford £122. I have asked for a refund with no response at all. That amount will pay my water bill for a year which at this time is more important. They don’t seem to care.

James

After an employee of MyHeritage actually mentioned to me in an email, that they follow a prepared migration flow, I question if DNA actually gets to a laboratory. I am extremely disgruntled and all I’ve got from them is my gripe has been passed to a relevant department? In other words shut up and go away, we are so busy if corners are cut then tough. If I could give a zero star I would. Be prepared to pay your money and only receive a guess on your heritage. Waste of money and time. If you get a so called ‘result’ from them, totally question it. Total rubbish.

It’s good

Would be nice if event reminders were available in the app (and a day ahead rather than a day behind like the website seems to be, especially for Birthday notification on the home page)... also would be nice if to didn’t have to expand branches and they grew as you moved around the tree.
App widget on iPhone has birthday listed as a year ahead but the app is correct. Eg.. 30th birthday when it should be 29th birthday

James Cavanagh Feedback page

I have made numerous inputs to my family history and on a later period of opening it up I have found that some of the details I have already confirmed have either not been put in place or wrong details are in place .
I wish to know how I can avoid this happening because I believe it is the fact that my site is open to public. Rising that this is happening.
Can you advise how I can avoid this extra work in rectifying mistakes or left out information.
As stated I am only entering confirmed information.
How do I make my site secure to avoid this happening again?

Random Data Deleted

Annoying just randomly deletes data. I’ve lost photos, dates of birth, ancestors - takes time to do this so not happy with it. Contacted tech support and they were unable to help.

I have possibly blood relatives!!!

This has been a journey I never expected to travel. I was given the DNA kit as a gift and after years of wondering about my origins and not knowing much except my place of birth and from a old passport of my adopted mother had used when we moved from country to country which had been blacked out. I lived as an only child but have children and grand children who have no idea about my German ancestry. The DNA shows I am Eastern European, and have people with similar DNA in parts. This is the start after 70 years I am not alone genetically I have connections some rather distant, so I do exist. Worth the journey I know I am of German extraction Hamburg was not just a place of birth!

Inferior product that double charged me

Subscribed for the year via App Store. They then charged me again but at half the price they charged me on App Store. App is clunky. Doesn’t sync with website version. Data is patchy and sparse. Doesn’t recognise that I have a subscription (in fact they charge me for two). Difficult to use. Not a patch on Ancestry. Doesn’t have a fraction of the data. More difficult to use. Really a terrible terrible experience and I regret every cent of signing up for the annual subscription.

Tracing generations

Although very easy to use , there are lots of duplicates on this and it says its found 1500 potential matches ( in the search engine ) for instance , but only shows 1000 of them ? Using the ap on your phone / tablet gives a different experience on your home computer .
