Thank you Shirley, I'll put that in my little red book so I don't lose it again. |

This does not give me an answer. It just repeats what I asked |

As Michael has only posted on this thread and seems a little 'lost', PM sent with a C&P from the link OFiTG gave. |

Does GR have a phone number that I can actually speak to a person? |

Support is a very small team and they don't exactly encourage phone calls. They field queries from Findmypast as well as GR. You'd be better off emailing them via |

i actually got a reply from Genes today to an email about my threads and messages not working - they are looking into it although they are still not working. However - and this surprised me - the last sentence of the email was as follows:- |

Thanks Sylvia - yes, I remember someone else mentioning they had been given a phone number but I don't think they gave the number on the thread. |

Kathleen - try adding them to Watched Threads. As long as you don't have loads, that might work for you. If you don't want notifying emails when another post is added, untick the first column and save. As long as you don't tick the Delete box you should be able to find it relatively easily. |

I wonder why Genes seem to be the only chat forum that charges for chatting. I can fully understand paying for info and anything connected with enhancing a family tree, but paying for chatting?!! :-( WW2 chat, gransnet, mumsnet and medical sites, cocker spaniel forum, and many more are all free. Genes however charge £18 (after 10% discount) a year for exactly the same facility!! |

I think it is because they were one of the early websites and always did charge, and it was not so much in the beginning so they have just kept on charging. |

Oh I see! Sort of!! I wonder how many people have left the site because of this? As you say it's got more and more expensive which I'm beginning to balk at! Combining the two sites would be a good and cheaper idea, and probably encourage people to spend more on their research in the long run. Nothing like a freebie to encourage folk to spend in other ways!!! Perhaps if people leave it might come to Genes notice and action might be taken to come into line with other chat sites! I know, pigs might fly!!! |
