Ancestry rates keep going up and up. They nearly doubled my costs and started charing semi annually to mask the scam. I pay for Newspapers.com plug in which has not worked for over a year. They refuse to address it. Now they have the nerve to make software fixes and want to charge me another $9.99 per month to use them.

So their overpriced non-functioning software doesn't work and now they want me to pay more to fix it. What a crock! SCAM SCAM SCAM

Tip for consumers:
The customer service is useless. Complain and they will just threaten to delete your account.

Products used:
Access over 30 billion US and International records on Ancestry, more than 8 billion articles with Newspapers.com™ Publisher Extra ®, and millions of additional military records from around the globe on Fold3®.

Stuart Skalka photographer is an unethical a business person. He enters into business transactions then attempts to defraud the other party by threatening to make false claims and leave bad reviews if they don't pay him money or give him deep discounts posthumously. He did this to us. He will buy expensive stuff on his credit card then make up false claims to dispute the charge.

Stuart Skalka photographer is an untrustworthy con artist with a nasty vindictive streak. He actually targets business with intentions of doing them harm as personal favors for friends. You should not do business with him ever or risk getting scammed like I was.
