“Nonexistent Customer Service”

Bruce M.

I was locked out of my account. I went to customer service but could not get anything other than a robot who could do nothing. I created a help ticket and ONE WEEK LATER I got an email from someone or thing posing as a human offering to help. He told me to clear my cookies and cache but that did no good. When I tried to respond to him, I just got sent to another robot. This is probably the worst experience I have ever had with a genealogy site. It's unbelievable! Ancestry has a newspaper site that works fine.

Have an account, search find what I am looking for but won't let me load it telling me I have to sign up for an account. Tried to cancel and then up but won't let me. I like this site and this is my first issue but there is no where to call only send email. Poor customer service

I must say that I had a good experience. I notice that the other reviews didn't bother to read the Terms and conditions as we all should when getting a contract. The agent was efficient and answered all the questions. Stop acting like children and read the fine print!
