Price

It is way to expensive, it's easy to subscribe but hard to unsubscribe, all the tricks in the trade. Has good features though, making gathering info easier, picture handling etc

Un site efficace et simple d'accès.
November 12, 2025

Bonjour un site accessible à tous, fonctionnel et efficace. Les actes sont faciles à retrouver globalement. Quelques améliorations sur le moteur de recherche pourraient être envisagées mais globalement on a les éléments pour avancer.

I've been a subscriber to My Heritage for several years now, since I had my DNA done & a friend who also did that discovered that she was half Spanish. Since that time not only have I traced my family tree back some way, but we've been able to trace both her birth parents trees (she was adopted at birth) back & have discovered not only her English Mother but her Spanish Father as well. My Heritage seems to be better at tracing Spanish records than other Ancestry websites so very pleased with the site.

Très, trop? Complet.

Beaucoup d'informations. Trop à mon avis pour qui ne cherche pas à faire des recherches généalogiques approfondies.

Poor Customer Service
November 12, 2025

Contacted customer service to update payment information. Agent kept trying to get me t purchase an extension to my subscription at a reduced rate. I'm not due t renew until next August. The agent said that he could not change my credit card information without changing the terms of my subscription. The only solution is too wait until next August when it comes up for renewal. I will do that and may not renew.

A better solution would be a simple page on the website that will allow a change of payment details directly instead of forcing the customer to be open it these high pressure sales tactics when trying to make a simple change.

Sem o reembolso prometido.
November 12, 2025

Em 21/09/25 vi uma cobrança em meu cartão de crédito. Foi quando me dei conta que estava em renovação automática para o proximo ano o acesso a árvore genealógia My Heritage. Neste mesmo dia, cancelei os serviços que iriam se iniciar, ou seja, não usei. Passei um e-mail com o comporvante de cancelamento. Em 29/09/25 o Alejandro, pessoa responsável na My Heritage me ligou e expliquei p motivo - preciso deste valor, pois meu cão está com câncer e tenho tido inúmeras despesas. Ele, muito atencioso, disse que me devolveriam o valor e que isto iria se providenciado com rapidez. Paguei a fatura do cartão, ou seja, paguei o valor e até hoje não recebi meu reembolso. Tenho passado e-mails informando isso - não recebi meu reembolso. Daí ontem o Nick quer começar o assunto todos de novo - quer meu telefone para eu contar tudo de novo. Então respondi ´para ele isso - que já fizeram contato comigo me dizendo que iriam me devolver o valor e que é só isso que eu quero. Então estou bem descontente com esta falta de cordenação entre que me atendeu e o ´pessoal do finaceiro do My Heritage e mais ainda porque não existe um histórico na minha conta, pois estão querendo que eu comente de novo o assunto com um novo atendente.

Difficult to sort
November 12, 2025

Really a newbie here with years of experience on another site. Photos not included in my Gedcom. Too many emails - many linking to other trees (are these trustworthy?) When actual documents are presented I need to be able to extract address if available.

Peace of mind
November 12, 2025

Not knowing where I came from was a real worry for me. It was kept from me most of my entire life. I had a suspicion who my biological father might have been but nothing really to substantiate it. I took a DNA test not really thinking that it would help but hopeful that it would. Now, I am so excited because my father's family name is very much present in my DNA results. I now know who made me. Although he has been gone many years the facts that have been revealed have filled a void in my life.

Zur Ahnenforschung sehr gut geeignet.
November 12, 2025

Habe durch My Heritage viele Infos zu meiner Familien Geschichte Gefunden. Leider nicht so viel wie ich es mir gewünscht hätte. Dies liegt aber an manchen Vorschriften zum Datenschutz. Der Gen Test ist zu empfehlen genau wie die Fotobearbeitung.
