    Pinky,

    You can transfer/upload your results from Ancestry, etc free of charge but you have to pay $19 (normal price) in order to have full use of FTDNA's tools. So this offer is aimed at non FTDNA customers.

    Ah! Thanks.

    2x free tickets to Back To Our Past inside delivery copies of the Irish Times today if not all copies - only found the envelope now. Also the same for the Ideal Homes Show the week after

    From memory, free tickets for BTOP are never hard to find anyway


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 6,609 Mod ✭✭✭✭pinkypinky


    Yeah, I don't know how they make any money on BTOP.

    Is there a code for this? All I have is the £13.99 option for one month

    I just click on the link in the email and it takes me straight to the offer. I have previously registered an account (although not subbed).

    It must be a specific direct marketing campaign. I'm also registered but did not get an email.

    Is there any way to get that Show Offer online anywhere? I'd like to buy a couple of the Ancestry DNA kits as presents.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 6,609 Mod ✭✭✭✭pinkypinky


    That offer was only for the show. But maybe wait for US Thanksgiving. They often do deals at holiday periods.

    Good idea, I'll hold off for a couple of weeks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,108 ✭✭✭Jellybaby1


    Hadn't really been interested in DNA tests up to recently but with Christmas coming up and no other ideas for presents for ourselves we may just give it a go. Roll on Thanksgiving, 23rd November!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,033 ✭✭✭OU812


    Ancestry DNA kit is currently €59.

    Does anyine know if I bought the My heritage kit, could I use the results on Ancestry?


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 6,609 Mod ✭✭✭✭pinkypinky


    I don't think Ancestry allows transfers from any other sites.

    I transferred the opposite way (Ancestry to MyHeritage) for someone but the matches are pathetic. Something like 7 in total and the top one is estimated to be "1st to 5th cousin". That particular match is on other sites and he shares a surname with the paternal grandmother, so I was able to pin him down as a third cousin with a small bit of work.

  • Registered Users Posts: 565 ✭✭✭montgo


    Click here. The discount was automatic, no code apparently required.


  • Registered Users Posts: 565 ✭✭✭montgo


    Don't forget to unclick the automatic renewal or at least cancel it before month ends.

    Thanks Montgo! You've just cost me €3.74 and my wife may not see me for the next few weeks but into the deep I go!


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 6,609 Mod ✭✭✭✭pinkypinky


    It's only a bargain if you'll use it! Really tempted by the irishnewsarchives offer but I don't use it all the time and €10 for a day is very reasonable when I do need it.

    I upgraded a Y DNA test that has been essentially useless from 12 to 37 markers. There's more I could do there but didn't want to commit lots of money to it. In general, I find autosomal more worth while.

    I've subscribed, (thanks Montgo, it did not work without your link). It's less than the price of a pint, so any little bit of use justifies it. FWIW my FTDNA 37 marker Y-DNA did nothing for my research, nor did the autosomal from Ancestry.

    Can we try keep this thread just for offers please? Pedro has posted about why it didn't work for him in the DNA thread before I think.

    The rootsireland one mentioned by Claire is worth getting. What I liked was they allowed me to add the reduced subscription on to the end of my current one. Often these deals are only for new subscribers.
