Sebastiaan hjalp mig. Jeg havde næsten opgivet, at se mit træ igen. Jeg havde virkelig brug for en, som ikke opgav mig.
Tak endnu en gang Sebastiaan.

Tak til Maja for en fantastisk support i går og i dag. Det hjalp mig meget, at tale med dig. Nu har jeg også talt med din svenske kollega og fået rettet mit abonnement til.

My Maternal Grandfather immigrated from Italy. My results say 0% Italian. I guess Blood is different than DNA.
The results were provided quickly.

Dear Jacquelyn,

I'm sorry to read your low star review and I understand that you are dissatisfied with your ethnicity estimate. I will do all I can to help as your feedback is extremely important to us.

I'd like to examine your estimate along with understanding more of the research you have done in Italy to give you more precise information on this issue. In my experience, what I have noticed is people within neighboring countries within Europe have common DNA. For instance, there is a noticeable genetic difference between Northern Italians and Southern Italians, with northerners being close to the French population, and southerners overlapping with both Balkan and other southern European populations.

Nevertheless, I would like to locate your account at MyHeritage and examine this further for you by all means.
In order to do so, I'm going to need to locate your account. Therefore, please send me an e-mail from your registered e-mail address at rafael.vipsupport@myheritage.com.

You are already my first priority here and I will be looking for your e-mail.

Kind Regards
Rafael
MyHeritage

Agent was very knowledgable and answered questions. A bit difficult to understand his accent. I don't need a hundred characters to state this.

I wanted to learn more about relatives. BUT, if you do not subscribe to MONTHLY charges you will learn NOTHING about putative relatives other than their name. Not even the state where they live.
