MyHeritage Money taken without consent

Today £228 was taken from my account for a renewed subscription, without informing me of this or indeed giving me the option to stop this happening.

When I initially purchased a DNA kit over a year ago, it was my understanding that this was a one off payment and I was not made aware at the time of purchase that this would happen.

I am appalled that such a large sum has just been taken from my account without my prior knowledge. I expect this to be fullly refunded, promptly.

I look forward to a quick response.

Desired outcome: Full refund

The same thing happened to me. I had no idea my subscription would auto re-new for over 3 times the price I previously paid. So far, My Heritage has only offered to give back part of the payment and to extend my subscription. I need that money as covid is far from over!

MyHeritage Unauthorised Payment taken

MyHeritage have taken £226.80 out of my bank account on 3rd Jan for no reason whatsoever. I was given no warning it was going to be taken and have no understanding of what services it's supposed to be paying for.

The only services we have used from MyHeritage cost £79 per six months and that was taken as an entirely separate payment back in September.

I would like a full refund.

Desired outcome: Full refund

I'll give MyHeritage a lot of credit here. They have been very swift in responding to this and the result is that I got the outcome I really wanted - full refund and closure of accounts.

Thank you!

The company contacted me and helped me to understand what had happened. They have provided a full refund as I requested.

MyHeritage Automatic fee charge at end of free trial period - no confirmation

1 January 2022
The My Heritage Team
Thank you for email of 23 December 2021. My wife was unable respond over the Christmas period & is now unfortunately in hospital recovering from major orthopaedic surgery as a result of a fall on Wednesday 29 December 2021.
I believe my wife made it quite clear in her Email of 17 December 2021 that it had not been her intention to extend beyond the free period & requested a refund of the $A115.49 debited to our account that day.
My wife's only connection to the name McCrory is through her marriage to me & I already have a copy of the USA book on the Family McCrory.
As my wife pointed out she is a Townsend by birth & is a direct descendant of Lord Sydney after whom the City of Sydney is named. Her cousin Judy traced their family tree back as far as she could but came to halt when faced with burnt records in Ireland.
My lineage is similar to my wife's, where hers is England/Australia mine is Scotland/Australia. According to my "family Name History" it goes back to Middle Ages on the west coast of Scotland. My father "Norman John" was born in Australia in 1895 & his father "John Felix" migrated from Scotland.
Given that the USA records would be of little use to either of us it would be appreciated if you would reconsider her request that the Annual Fee be refunded.
John M McCrory
17 December 2021
The My Heritage Team
It would greatly appreciated if you would refund the payment you have received for the ongoing subscription.
I should have acted more quickly to cancel the free trial after my first use of the system. McCrory is my husband's surname whereas my maiden name is Townsend & the Family Tree developed by my cousin clearly indicates that my lineage is more England / Australia.

MyHeritage My Heritage subscription renewed using card without consent

I bought a DNA kit with my bank card on 29th November 2021 and this card has been used to take a years subscription without my consent.

This subscription started Dec 29th 2021 according to my account- I do not want this subscription.

I have sent a form from the website contacting them about this with no reply. It is my understanding that there's a 30 day money back guarantee.

I'd like someone to reply to me and a refund for the amount taken.

Desired outcome: Refund for full amount

MyHeritage I want to get a refund of a My Heritage subscription that I did not request.

I have just been charged for a My Heritage subscription which I had cancelled. The amount I was charged does not correlate with any pricing on the website. However, My Heritage have a 30 day refund policy. I have called, messaged and emailed numerous times over the last week since I was charged, and I have not received any response. It is impossible to contact anyone, and I am getting very very angry. I continually receive emails from My Heritage, but no one is responding to my requests to be contacted.
I don't even know what subscription I have, but my number is apparently

MyHeritage Fraud

Today December 9th I get an alert from my bank telling me a large sum has been deducted. I just paid for some paint from a lady I know and that was still pending and I buy from her all the time yet this company was able to swoop in take $129 and they still have it they still have that money . They have not refunded it or anything. Even after approving I did not have an account with them over the phone, they have to investigate IP addresses etc. and when they were on the phone with me and they asked me information they said well it looks like you don't have an account with us . if I don't have an account with y'all then that should be reason enough to give me my money back right now I have to fill out a dispute with my bank.

Desired outcome: I want my $129 + any NSF fees. You’re not refunding me right away when you know it’s fraudulent I think that deserves an extra

MyHeritage Took credit card payment for a "phantom" service or product out of my Chase Checking Account without a receipt in my profile.

Before I go further, I am contacting my bank and reversing this charge. MyHeritage sold me a product that I paid for and when I called to inquire about this product, and why it does not show in my profile, the answering system says phone support is only for paid subscriptions only and refers you to the online support which does not answer my question at all. I had to go to a random question, say it was not helpful to even get the phone number or to send an email (get a ticket). I called Sales and left a message thinking they could explain what they sold to me and I called the number listed in my bank account and it lead me to MyHeritage Cancellations. Well, since I can't cancel a free subscription, and I can't get phone support via customer service (and I am technically a customer because I paid for a service) I am filing this complaint. I simply wanted someone to explain the $30.67 withdrawn from my bank account on November 30th. Since, according to MyHeritage, I am not a paid subscriber.

Desired outcome: Full refund of the $30.67. An explanation for the "phantom" product or service.Suggestion: Customer Service for ALL levels of membership.

MyHeritage charged my Paypal account $299.00 out of the blue. I received no invoice, bill, or email communication stating that I would be charged. Additionally, I have no idea what this charge provides. I've filed a complaint with Paypal and I suggest no one subscribe to this service.

MyHeritage I purchased a site subscription for $75.65 prior to my free trial ending, then I was charged twice for $129 for the data plan without authorization.

On 11/23/21 I purchased a site premium plan for $75.65 invoice id [protected]. On 11/28/21 I was charged twice for an additional $129 billing agreement id B-570523896D8895035 and B-6GC83461VH582140X I am assuming for the premium site plan and then the data plan. All three charges are from my Paypal account. MyHeritage id is [protected], my name is Tammy Covlasky. My Paypal account email is [protected]@outlook.com. After speaking with customer support last night, I am now in agreement that I need the data plan, however, I need to have the extra $129 charge refund immediately. I have been charged a total of $333.65. Also, under my purchases it doesn't indicate what has been charged only that I have 2 subscriptions; a site plan and a data plan. This needs to be resolved in a very timely manner or I will be cancelling and demanding a full refund for the entire amount and lose my family tree that I have been working so hard on. Please do the right thing and refund the extra $129. I agree only to pay the $75.65 +$129 for a total of $204.65.

Desired outcome: Refund $129

MyHeritage Payment to MyHeritage

Since I did not get an explanation from MyHeritage for the misappropriation of my money for over three months, I will be forced to post the following warnings on social networks:

I caution MyHeritage users not to make subscription payments through the banking procedure provided by the MyHeritage website. I made this payment to MyHeritage three months ago, as confirmed by my bank's vetting process. My requests submitted to the portal do not work, my tree was blocked claiming they had not received the payment, so a sum of US $ 145 was stolen from me.

Mrs Isabelle,
MyHeritage

For about three months now, you have cleared up the misappropriation of my money, which I transferred through the bank according to your instructions. Both me and my family members suffered a significant loss due to the long, unjustified blockade of the use of the common family tree.
I am submitting a formal application for explanatory banking proceedings. Should MyHeritage continue to fail to respond, we will, as numerous family members, warn on online forums that there is a risk of money forfeiture when making a payment to MyHeritage.

Dear Eduardo,

As you suggested, I contacted my BNP PARIBAS bank and confirmed that the transfer was made and sought at the destination bank. Please find attached the confirmation of the successful transfer, received from the bank and the confirmation of the deduction of the transfer amount from my account.
As MyHeritage did not receive the transfer, it seems that BLUESNAP INC, who brokers the transaction, stopped it.
A request to check the transfer details to clarify the situation. Should this be impossible, BNP PARIBAS will initiate an interbank transfer complaint.

Dear Bohdan,

Thank you for contacting us. My name is Eduardo, and I'd be happy to assist you.

I am really sorry that this happened and I'll do my best to clarify the situation.

I understand that you are wondering why you didn't receive a notification that the payment didn't hit My Heritage for the subscription that was active on the account. Upon checking your account details, I noticed that back on 07/28/2021 an email with the subject Update Your Payment Details On The My Heritage Website, was sent to you as an advise that the payment for the subscription didn't go through and since there was no update of the information this was the reason the subscription was dropped off automatically. I understand that you meant to continue with the subscription and the payment was done and As compensation for this misunderstanding, I've added a free Complete subscription of 1 month to your account. Remember that the Complete subscription is a combination of a Data subscription and a PremiumPlus site subscription. It will allow you to add an unlimited number of individuals to your family website, use tools such as Smart Matches and Instant Discoveries, and access all the featured tools (shared ethnicities, ancestral surnames, family trees) when researching your DNA matches. It will also give you full access to our SuperSearch genealogy search engine, which contains billions of records from thousands of collections. With this subscription, you will also be able to use Record Matches and Record Detective and add family tree profiles to your tree from historical records.

If you would like to continue with the membership, I would suggest to get in touch with your bank and confirm what is the status of the Bank Transfer because it appears that this didn't go through on our end.

If there is anything else I can assist you with, please don't hesitate to contact me again.

Kind regards,

MyHeritage Payment taken out without any prior warning.

I received an email from MyHeritage.com informing that £226.80 was taken from my paypal account.

I am incredibly annoyed that I was not informed prior to taking the money from my account, as I was not aware that my subscription was still active.

I immediately cancelled the subscription and sent an email to MyHeritage.com to complain that I did not want the subscription and I wanted a full refund.

Just had a phonecall that said that they couldnt refund as I had not cancelled the subscription in time. This is *really* bad business practise and I refuse to ever use myheritage again

Your company and web site are CRAP. You charged an unapproved $200.00 to my card. I have never been a member of your organization, nor will I ever be. I get transferred to a medical monitoring recorder sales company. None of your "24-7 HELP" phones work and there is no way to

contact any part of your organization. I want my card credited immediately.

I am sending a copy of this to the BBB and your local state Attorney General.

The very same thing happened to me yesterday. I was shocked to see £226.80 taken from my account. I realise it was my fault for not being aware I was in an auto renewal account. Normally you get a warning email to say money will be taken but this did not happen. I have sent a refund request to My Heritage but after reading the above I have little chance. After the last 19 months of pandemic auto renewals were not my top priority and now I can ill afford money to be taken from my account.
