Accessing Ancestry
« on: Saturday 31 January 09 09:28 GMT (UK) »
Is anyone else having trouble accessing Ancestry.So far I can get Ancestry home page but when I click on anything I get the google search page saying cant find your page.Tried firefox but that gives a message check back later.
Im sick to death of this week after week,while all the time your subscriptions are running out.Dont now know whose to blame.AOL or Ancestry but either way its turning into a massive ripoff of my money.

Yes, I am also having trouble with it so it can't be AOL.

Ive just rung Ancestry and they say they are having problems with the site and are adding more servers to make it faster and it should be OK later today.
Lets hope it is.!!!!!

Having the same problem too. How about we all ask for a days subs refund???
I bet that would get them moving.

Earlier today I could not even load the Ancestry Home Page... just got a message that said I couldn't be connected to that site....

Six hours later it seems to be behaving itself again............. let's hope that they've got their act together again, or they'll be losing my sub in April when it comes due again.

Yeah, it was totally down at 08:00 GMT, but the site is now back, but the family trees are not accessable.

I am able to now access the home page, but cannot access either of my trees or search any of the records.
