Perhaps because they're fed up with the endless e-mails about MyHeritage.

Let's get back to using Legacy!

Re: [LegacyUG] Hello from MyHeritage + 2 unique offers

2017-09-16 Thread Gloria DeSousa
I finally gave in and thought I was adding onto my partner's current
MyHeritage website when I clicked on the link in one of the latest emails
with this offer. It had his name when I clicked the link and as far as I
have time to look, the webpage had only his name where it asked for
payment, nothing else.

Well, I started a subscription under another MyHeritage Web Site that I use
often, but not his, AND it didn't add on to his current subscription - it
has the subscription starting today.

Oh, and if that isn't a nuisance, I can't call MyHeritage on a Saturday,
when I have time and it's convenient for me. I am so frustrated and wish I
had just deleted that email like the many others from Legacy that I
delete!!

Warning to all those falling for this VIP Support.

I'll be away *Friday, September 15 - Sunday, September 24th, 2017*.
