I received a phone call this morning from my heritage. I spoke to a very nice man and a fine representative of my heritage tentatively listen to my concerns and my complaints about my heritage. He was very professional, and I could hear him smile in his voice and his tone we were able to resolve the issue that I had with my heritage, and I resubscribe for another year, my heritage
Word to the wise do not rely so much on AI. It is a helpful tool, but it’s very cumbersome as well. It puts up unnecessary walls that some customers may find troubling. Thank you for allowing me to voice
my opinion and my concerns to my heritage Richard.

I was allowed officially to use their powerful tool(DeepFace-Phote Enhancer)! With this I like to believe that a 400 year-old mystery about Shakespeare's physiognomy has been resolved!
Yes the Chandos painting of Shakespeare is genuine, just like the Sanders painting!

Scam

Scam! They charge you over 200$ after 30 days without any warning. Turns out with ordering a package of 30$ you give them the right to charge you a subscription that you never wanted. Before the order was executed (it was on pending), I wrote to them that it was a mistake and I never took any service of this random subscription. I got only 50$ back.

Slow response, but great resolution

It took some time for the support team to respond to my payment-related issue, which was a bit frustrating at first. However, once they got back to me, they handled everything professionally and resolved the situation in a very satisfactory way. In the end, I’m happy with the outcome and appreciate the effort to solve the problem.

The person who rang me didn't give up on me not answering, I saw it was a call from My Heritage so I answered the call. The person was friendly, patient and polite, he explained what was going on and I felt satisfied with his attitude.
