Adopted.com Anmeldelser 

I definitely give Adopted .com five stars for being such a great tool for adoptees and birth parents to be able to easily use and search for their loved ones. Just put it in the information on your profile that you know, however limited it may be, and the site matches you to others that have uploaded profiles with matching or similar content! I did not know about this site when I was searching, but I now would recommend it to anyone who still is.
I have successfully used it to help a friend find her child who was adopted. Once you send message, they have an advanced system that continues to let the connection know via email and other contact info you provided at sign up. It truly is very easy and invaluable in my opinion!

Well, I just read through the reviews and discovered that in the US and Canada they only pay $10 a month for this service.
I'm in the UK and paying just under £15 per month.
That works out as twice as much.
That's just not fair.
Also, I did cancel a while back.
Then I got an email saying I had loads of matches but had to resubscribe to see them. I did that and none of the matches, well, matched.
The weird thing is, I've been subscribed again for some time now and haven't had any emails about matches. I only seem to get them when I'm not subscribed.
*Edit*
Adopted.com reached out to me very quickly after I left this mediocre review. They were quite lovely and very helpful. They explained that, if a member is paying less, then they have a concession. I have, therefore, upped the stars on my review x

I would give zero if I could.
UPDATE; Following this review I was contacted by the CEO(?) of the company based in Canada who was concerned about my review. Well done for the follow up - I expressed how hurt I had been and suggested changes to how post results. She asked me to add to my review following the call - I am a bit late but that is because I thought instead of being put throught the emotional turmoil I would employ an adoption tracing company - this cost a lot (money) but was emotionally totally different.

They did everything they could to try to contact a lead for me. Truly, they went above and beyond.

Adopted.com really CAN WORK! My (new) sister in law posted a long time ago, I found her/our match in the system, I pursued contact through the private messaging system and now have a new big brother and he has a mother and 2 new brothers! At 50 & 60 years old I can attest that it’s never too late to try!

Initially reviewed with 1 star due to something I didn't understand. Upgraded to 5 now. Founder Katherine sent me a personal email explaining what I was concerned about.
They really do care, and go through great lengths in proving this.
You can trust that they only have our best interest at heart.
I have never quite experienced service like this.
I would greatly recommend them.

I signed up and paid.. then I cancelled on the same day. I can't get back in to make sure I'm not a paying member. I have re-registered and changed my password, gotten a link to re-register and everything, but every time I got to sign-in the site gets stuck on getting an authentication code. Can someone please verify my membership is canceled. Should I have to pay a whole month if I joined for a few minutes? Thanks D Thomas. A phone number would be great! **I'm revising my original rating from 2 to 5. The developer reached out and helped me in a very timely fashion. That's exceptional support, but I do hope they find a way for folks who are not members to contact them with questions or concerns.

What an awful way to trick people into paying up.

I am helping my wife search for her birth mother, we have all very specific information about her mother and entered all the required info to be told there is a match but we need to pay to view.

As soon i saw the results a 5 year old could easily tell the results where total garbage and totally unrelated, total rip off.

I got a Email one day..saying i think i may be your daughter.we share picture and ,my husband said she looks just like you..after 52 years ..she beautiful and i have grand children and great grand.Cant wait for her to meet her 2 brothers..love you michele

After years of wondering was all taken care of when adopted.com came into play . Ended up having a mat h that would be my biological mother. Thanks so much for all your support and efforts to help us make contact .

I've tried for days to setup "Felicia1992", but the site never sends the verification email. I wait the required hour and try to get the email again but nothing is sent.

Even worse is the unavailability of online chat or other responsive support. It looks like a great site but it's no good if you can't register/verify.

Update: I've been contacted by the developer of Adopted. I'm up and searching, and very happy with the service. Still, if I hadn't complained so publicly there'd be no solution to my problem. I hope they fix the site to allow non-members to reach support. My problem was solved in minutes with the help of their excellent support.

I have been trying for over 2 months to cancel and keep being charged. When I try to log into support my account is not found. I have reset the password twice. Would really really like to resolve this asap.

***Updated***
They refunded me my charges which was greatly appreciated. Biggest issue apparently was having 2 emails and not remembering which one I had used.
If they had sent the reminder email with the email address in the body of it, that would have helped tremendously. Or only have 1 email to use not 2. I am changing my review since I received this help.

After searching for my sister for 40+ years i finally found her thanks to this wonderful site,

I was very excited to find my son within only one week thru Adopted. Our DNA was matched on My Heritage, linking thru Adopted. I have searched for over 30 years for him (he is 51) on many sites and this seems like a miracle. Thank you Adopted!

This site led to me reuniting with my birth daughter. She posted on a facebook forum and I had my profile in this forum for a few years. A person that saw my profile and her post linked us together. We were in contact within five days after my BD put her search post out there. She lives fairly close, we have already met in person and talk every day. She has quickly developed a close relationship with myself and my two older adult children. Do NOT give up! Keep your profiles active with as much information that you have about the adoption! It was the non identifying info shared that stuck in the mind of the person that came across the both of us and led to our reunification. I never, ever thought this would happen....and it was WELL worth it.

I have been paying 10 dollars a month for a couple of years and never see anything i would like to stop this payment my number is 623-692-0170

NEVER STOP TRYING
Thirty-four years ago my son was placed for adoption,we were very young and events left it somewhat out of our control, or so it seemed. Six months ago my son was with another webstite and found his mother, who in turn contacted me. We had made a promise to each other that we would always let the other know if we found him.
Long story short, he lives four states away but it made no difference. My daughter and I headed that way the next day. When we meet each other it was strange to say the least and still is today, the hole that I had in my heart for so long was not there anymore. We talk at least every two days and he and his new sister talk constantly. If not for Adopted.com I would have never even imagined this would be possible, THANK YOU... To anyone reading this, Never Ever Give Up. The heart never dies, always try.

A friend recommended that I join this site when she learned that I was searching for a daughter I'd given up for adoption. When I created my profile, I found 6 potential matches. I sent messages to all 6 and got 2 responses. It took about 2 years because I was not a frequent visitor of the site. Of the 2 responses, 1 was definitely not a match. The other had basically the same information that I had surrounding the adoption. Which was minimal to say the least. We then decided that she would take a DNA test. I'd already taken mine. And the results were a match. According to DNA analysis, parents and children share approximately 50% of DNA. My daughter and I share 46.5% of our DNA. It's a match. I am very grateful that she was looking for me at the same time I was looking for her. Or I may not have ever found her. Thank you Adopted.com for making this happen.

After 50 years I finally found my nephew thanks to Adopted and DNA. What a thrill.

The staff was helpful and instrumental in making contact. Thank you all!

Amazing! I signed up last year and received a reply last month. It was my son I placed for adoption 34 years ago. He had just started searching for me the night before! We now have plans to meet right after Thanksgiving. I still can't believe it, my dream has come true. Don't wait, life's too short, find your dream!!!
