I tried at least six times and got this message:

can't find the server at www.genesreunited.com.au.

I eventually googled, tried at least three different links before success.

Am I the only one?

I don't like to use the UK page. I did in the past, when the au one was "unstable"....... and had problems adding and keeping names on my tree, and then found that ALL the sites (au, nz, uk etc) were doing crazy things.

I've learned my lesson....... when the site isn't co-operating, I don't add names to my tree, but I try to stick with one (au).

I can see in the url............ it's now uk.

Somebody's fiddling again. :-(

I've changed the title of this thread........ it used to be "trouble getting here"

I tried for 10 minutes, tried au, uk etc etc

Eventually (using google) I clicked on GR's Facebook page and then clicked on the uk address on that page.

Someone has left a message on Facebook, asking what has happened to the au site.

:-( :-( :-( :-(

Any other Aussies get here the same way?

Fingers crossed, mine's alright, Scozz, but I am using the UK site.

It has been very slow the last couple of days

Same here, the Aussie site doesn't work at all for me, only the UK one.

I can only get here via Facebook.

Very annoying!

I have just checked it through a redirect checker and it appears to not be working.

GR au is back.

Everybody is back from the weekend, the switch is back to ON :-)

An explanation would be appreciated, but I won't hold my breath.

LadyScozz - Thank you for contacting our support team, we are aware of the problem and working to resolve the issue :-D :-D :-D

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"
