Re: [LegacyUG] MyHeritage - not free

I agree with most of your comments suzy. I've never been involved with ancestry and have been with my heritage for around 3 years now. If not for the records they have from all of us our family trees would barely exist, however we ALL feed my heritage, ancestry etc the info and their annual

Re: [LegacyUG] MyHeritage - not free

I find it interesting that the majority of complaints are directed towards MyHeritage and not Ancestry, FindMyPast etc. who all use the same business practices and who also share information we provide to them (i.e. our own family trees). Well I for one WANT them to share my information -

Re: [LegacyUG] MyHeritage - not free

I should never give my card number for such a “free” trial. More and more companies including Microsoft and Norton promises free trial but they demand my credit card number. I have a special card for all internet shopping, this card I can load with money as required. And, if I sometimes miss to

Re: [LegacyUG] MyHeritage - not free

Actually, you should assume that the minute they ask for a card its not free, A company with a good product does not need to ask for a method of payment for a trial. Like Legacy, Great product, You try it, You like it , You buy it. Ian On Fri, Feb 16, 2018 at 11:52 AM, John Cardinal

Re: [LegacyUG] MyHeritage - not free

Pauline, Your post indicates that MyHeritage uses subtle techniques to try and part you from your money when you aren't really interested in the product they are pushing. Those techniques are often called "dark patterns". Free services that convert into paid subscriptions are a common

Re: [LegacyUG] MyHeritage - not free

I'm wondering how did My Heritage get your credit card info to begin with.  Did  you have a subscription at some point?  I'm hoping 23andMe or WorldVitalRecords didn't give it to them. I don't like their interface either, but what I've done is create a gedcom from Legacy and uploaded that to

Re: [LegacyUG] MyHeritage - not free

I think My Heritage and Ancestry are similar in that they automatically direct debit your account each year, without notifying first. I understand it's all in the 'fine' print. I had a huge disagreement with them last year after they direct debited my account and I told them they were unscrupulous

Re: [LegacyUG] MyHeritage - not free

Pauline, I agree that My Heritage subscription plans were very confusing as they are split between trees and real records. I think they've made them a little clearer and have some plans that include both the trees and the real records. Their practice of auto renewing without warning is also

Hi Pauline, You're talking about two totally different things - subscription to MyHeritage data etc. and FREE to upload DNA data from other companies if you're not a subscriber. It sounds like you were using MyHeritage Online to add to your tree and haven't been using the MyHeritage Family
