Who I Am

Without my heritage I wouldn’t know who I am or where I come from. It means so much to me when I find out an address or an occupation from my ancestors, especially if I can see it in current generations. It proves they live on inside of us and our children even after death. I just wish the fees weren’t so expensive so I could have access to more.

So much better than Ancestry

I moved to My heritage because it is so easy to access additional information and to check inconsistencies.

Quite user friendly except when you need to correct DOB. No way to contact customer service

Been trying to fix the day of my birth and this isn’t easy to do. It keeps saying something went wrong. Tried the contact us… that popped up as well. Was in both the app and website. You will be going around in circles trying to contact customer service. There is no way to contact anyone for help. They give you articles to read so I cannot correct the incorrect fact sheet on myself under profiles.
