      Complaint Type:
      Product Issues
      Status:
      Resolved
      MyHeritage renewed my subscription without any notice that it was due or coming up and increased the price 3 times the original membership. I immediately went online after I received the charge notice of $330.69 on July 19th 2024 so I could cancel the service. I found there is not a human person you can call or even a contact phone number and the chatbot takes you around in a circle. I clicked on the cancel and request refund which tells you it can take up to a week to have someone contact me. Today July 23, 2024 I received an email that MyHeritage tried to call me on this matter. My phone shows shows absolutely no log of any attempted call. The phone number on the email gives a message they tried to contact me and will try again soon. I've tried calling this number numerous times and a person never comes on. They are impossible to get in contact with and appear to be a fraudulent company.

      Ive been charged for a subscription I didnt authorize. $300 yearly and this is already my second year getting scammed. They got lucky I didnt catch it sooner. Its super difficult to get a number to call. They only have a robot to assist you with any problems and it doesnt help. I feel like they have been doing this to so many people. I will contact all my friends and family and make sure never to use this company for any dna Kits. Give me my refund! Scammers
