Dear Janice,
I'm sorry you feel this way.
I must clarify that MyHeritage informs all of the annual charge and its price on the automatic e-mail that is sent out after you enroll in the membership and after every renewal. Also, one may view the status or cancel an annual subscription at any time when logging in to MyHeritage from the My Purchases page and incur no annual charge.
We value the satisfaction of all of our members. This is why our terms and conditions read that If you are not satisfied with your purchased plan you may request a full refund by contacting Customer Support within thirty (30) days of the initial purchase date of the subscription.
I would be happy to assist you personally with canceling your membership and issuing you a full refund if you've incurred in an unwanted subscription with us. In order to do so, I’m going to need to locate your account.
Please e-mail me directly at catarina.vipsupport@myheritage.com from your registered e-mail address so I may assist you with this as soon as possible.
Kind regards,
Catarina, MyHeritage Team

Hi Stan,
I see you have written the same on another review site and I would like to learn more about how you have experienced racism with researching your family.
This is most important for me and I will do all I can to help.
In order to help, I'd like to better understand what caused this to ultimately forward it up the chain of command here for swift action to better the genealogy experience for the millions of our members.
Please e-mail me at rafael.vipsupport@myheritage.com from your registered e-mail address so I may locate your account and assist with this as soon as possible.
Looking forward to helping and understanding what happened.
