Mytrueancestry Reviews 55

I love the analysis... opens up a lot of interesting stuff for confirmation, but the level tiering is getting ridiculous. You're expected to pay more and more and more again. Falling out of love with this as a result, having spent hundreds of dollars..

I’ve used several DNA and ancestry platforms over the years, but MyTrueAncestry completely blew me away with its depth, accuracy, and historical context. Unlike most ancestry services that focus only on modern ethnic breakdowns, this platform matches your DNA to real ancient samples from archaeological digs and historical sites. It’s like stepping back in time and discovering the actual civilizations and peoples your ancestors were once part of — from Romans and Vikings to Bronze Age nomads and medieval cultures.

One of the biggest benefits for me was the ability to upload my data via GEDmatch. The integration is seamless and allows you to leverage your existing DNA data from other providers, making the whole process super convenient and fast. Plus, GEDmatch's raw data compatibility opens up even more accurate and refined results on MyTrueAncestry.

The platform uses cutting-edge archaeogenetic techniques and powerful admixture algorithms, paired with cloud computing, to analyze your DNA against a vast library of ancient genomes. The results were surprisingly detailed and included rich historical narratives and interactive maps that made the entire experience engaging and educational.

As someone interested in genealogy, anthropology, and archaeology, this service offers a truly unique perspective. It doesn't just tell you where you’re from — it tells you who your ancestors were in the context of real, ancient human history.

If you’re curious about the deeper story behind your DNA, I highly recommend giving MyTrueAncestry a try. It’s not just a DNA test; it’s a journey through time.

A diifferent DNA site and the only one that really connects you to ancestors. Includes cM, SNPs, Genetic Distance, the signum of the samples we are realed to which makes further reseach possible. Been able to find the DNA link to previous only on paper links/family tree.
So much information, start small and read/reseach the different remains, the cultures and history of the populations.

Mytrueancestry gives people a false sense of being of nobility and/or royalty heritage. The company is a third party company and uses sometimes inacccurate data from other companies. It is expensive and more often than not makes it seem more promissing and
accurate the more you pay!
The layout and graphic looks sloppy and
cheap.
This is NOT useful for serious
researcher!

My question to mytrueancestry was answered quickly within minutes, and the issue I was having with one of my maps was also addressed and quickly fixed, so I'm very happy and satisfied with the service this company provides.

Besides the fact that the website provides new data every three days or so (sometimes two days), it works with powerful tools to obtain the fascinating results about ourselves; indeed, as a matter of fact, we're all connected, as we already knew and sighted - now we can see it, though, through this great DNA experience.
Also: the client support was just amazing.
I´m a very satisfied, enthusiastic and grateful customer, and I can only, by all means, recommend the website to everyone, based on all this.
Furthermore, and also very important: I´d like to directly greet and thank the entire team of MyTrueAncestry.com for your awesome job.
All the best. See you soon!

The site is very intuitive and allows you to discover your origins in a clear and detailed way, with explanations accessible even for beginners. The connections with ancient populations are fascinating and well-documented, which makes the experience both educational and fun. The customer service is responsive and friendly, which is a real plus. I highly recommend MyTrueAncestry to anyone who wants to explore their family history in a reliable and exciting way!

Purchased Knight level; still cannot access the features. Emailed them several times & no response. Now filing a chargeback on credit card. HUGE waste of time and money. Run away now!!!

For many years, I have been a customer of several DNA testing companies. So, let's say that I have some idea of what companies can offer to the customers based on your raw autosomal DNA data. I have uploaded my father's raw file (23&Me), my own, and my mother's brother's. Results are completely aligned with the known ancestry and locations. Some are unknown but logical. We are here to learn something new, aren't we? I would like to have a result download option and a more visually appealing site (one that is more communicative with the customer), but that is not crucial.

Absolute waste of money you could sneeze and they'd ask for more money 😒🙄

Terrible non existent service. Ignore you and can't and/ or won't fix simple technical issues such as page won't refresh and add on's you pay for don't work. Take your money and run ... that's it. Avoid!

MyTrueAncestry is a fascinating journey through history, offering an easy-to-understand platform with lots to learn. The results are clear and updated twice a week, featuring high-quality graphics, and the Deepdives provide intriguing insights. While some users have experienced issues with upgrade charges and accuracy, others find the experience engaging and enriching. Overall, it’s a unique adventure for those interested in exploring their ancestry. 4 stars.

absolutely unsatisfying, by way of simplification I can say that I have explored the site to the end, I have reached the highest level, it took me almost 3 years, but honestly I am extremely disappointed, I did not care if I was descendant or less of royal families or not, it would have been enough for me to have certainties about my ancestors of 3 or 4 generations, I turned out to be a mix of ancient populations and it can be, but it is not understandable why these populations are not the same as those indicated by 23 and me, Genome link, My Ancestry, I threw away a lot of money but I had no result. I discovered that I have the DNA of all the Scottish clans, but if I go to do a PCA analysis, there is no trace of Scottish DNA, same thing for Ashkenazi DNA, I should be Jewish, but there is no trace in the DNAIn short, it seems to me a mockery, a deception that may seem professional but that if it is evaluated well turns out to be exactly what it is.

MTA met my ancestry well. Germanic and Celtic tribes. That's exactly how I look. Blonde hair and red beard. Is credible and also corresponds to the family history.
If you have Germanic or Celtic ancestors, you will often get Pannonians and Illyrians as a result. This is particularly common among people with Skordisk, Ostrogothic, Visigothic and Gepid ancestors. They all settled in Pannonia. Therefore I suspect an incorrect assignment of the samples...

The layout could also be made more modern and structured more clearly. In God's name, please pay someone who structures the site more clearly and make the interface more modern. You get eye cancer when you see that...

The levels cost quite a bit and you don't really get much in return. And stop these constant discount promotions. They are supposed to suggest that it is cheap. But you hardly get any new information in return. Competition would be good for MTA, then they would be forced to change...

your site is a great experience and adventure through time and space - a journey through history; easy to understand and a lot to be learned

The best!! Yes it’s free for limited information but to dig deep it cost money and it was well worth it!!

A scam. You are misled to analyze your DNA for free. But all is a scam. After you upload it is NOT free. You must pay a large sum $ to get the tesult you were promised for free. The upload is free but only to steal your DNA. It is lost forever in their hands and you will never get it back. These people are scammers and mafia! Never upload your DNA!

Site seems cool, but when I paid for an upgrade, I did not get the upgrade but they took my money. I have emailed multiple times with one response to get the info to the right person (after the info@ email did not give a response, so I messaged the Facebook page) only to then have no one follow up and no one respond thereafter. I'm out the money that I gave with the promise for access to more information; which I did not get. For that reason I have given one star.

Steep prices for inaccurate results. Mytrueancestry uses a predatory strategy to squeeze your wallet for "upgrades" in hopes to get a more clarity about your ancestry which it utterly fails at best at and worst is misleading.

-Using AI art is a clear example of it being a lazy cash grab. This factor confirms its scam status.

You're better off using Gedmatch admixture calculators or getting G25 coordinates and using Vahaduo. Much much much cheaper and more accurate.

Stay away from it, getting an idea of your ancestry is much much cheaper than this.

My True Ancestry is a borderline scam. It's crap, period. I remember it was free to see some of it, and then you have to pay to unlock it again. Then, you have to pay to unlock every section, and it was very overpriced.

What I discovered is an interface that looks like the school project from a first year IT student, a very painful website to navigate, copies of the most useless Mdlp Gedmatch calculators, and unrealistic ancient breakdowns. Also, I can get a haplogroup report for free on Cladefinder.

Going from My True Ancestry to Illustrativedna felt like upgrading from a Suzuki Swift to a Landcruiser 300 series.

Sorry for my rant, but I am still grieving my money.
