Thank you for your message. While DNA is DNA and that doesn’t change, each testing company can produce different results. These differences arise from factors such as the algorithms used, our sample population databases, the genotypic chip, sample collection methods, and the genetic markers we analyze to generate your report.
If you’d like to review your results in more detail or have any questions, please contact us via phone, chat, or email, and our team will be happy to assist you.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for giving us the chance to explain. We understand that having ancestor names and specific sources can feel more informative, and we appreciate your perspective.
At CRI Genetics, our ancestry reports are based on BioGeographical Ancestry analysis using advanced genetics and anthropology. Our system compares your DNA to reference populations around the world to estimate where your genetic heritage comes from—including both recent and ancient ancestry—but it does not link your DNA to specific individual ancestor names or exact historical records the way traditional genealogy trees do. This is because we work with genetic patterns rather than documented family records, which aren’t always available or complete for every line in your family tree.
Our reports include features like:
1. A detailed breakdown of ancestral regions across generations
2. Dual ancestry analysis (recent and ancient)
3. A timeline showing how your heritage likely spread over time
These insights are drawn from your genetic data and scientific models, not from historical documents tied to named ancestors.
Because genetic inheritance mixes DNA from many lines, it’s not possible for us—or any DNA company—to pinpoint exact ancestor names and documented origins just from your DNA alone without family trees or genealogical records. That kind of specific linking requires traditional genealogical research, which our genetic reports complement but don’t replace.

Massively Disappointed
In short, I will simply say I would NEVER recommend your services to anyone hoping to learn more about their family’s health history. I was adopted at birth, and have no knowledge of my “health history.” I was hoping your service might provide some insight, but so far all I have found are some “fun facts” that by your own disclaimer may or may not be relevant to the specific individual. Thanks for nothing.

Hello Tim! We're very sorry to hear that your experience has been so disappointing, and I completely understand your frustration.
Our DNA reports are designed to provide insights based on genetic information, but they are not a full substitute for a complete personal or family medical history.
We truly regret that the service did not meet your expectations or provide the information you were hoping for. Your feedback is valuable, and we will continue to use it to improve both the clarity and relevance of our reports.
If you’d like, we can review your account together to ensure you’re accessing all available health-related insights included in your test.

Hello KD! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're truly sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your results, and understand how concerning it can be when different DNA services provide results that don’t align with one another, especially after you’ve taken the time to research and compare.
It’s important to note that different DNA testing companies use distinct reference populations, algorithms, and analytical models. Because of this, it’s not uncommon for ancestry percentages to vary between providers, even when testing the same individual. Some platforms focus more heavily on recent genealogical matching using very large databases, while others like CRI Genetics, place greater emphasis on deep ancestral origins and bio-geographical ancestry using different scientific methodologies.
That said, we completely understand how this can feel frustrating, particularly if the results didn’t meet your expectations or seemed inconsistent with what you already knew or received elsewhere. Your feedback is valuable to us, and concerns like yours are taken seriously and shared with our science and product teams as part of our ongoing efforts to improve clarity, transparency, and the customer experience.
If you would like, we’re happy to review your report with you in more detail or help explain how the results were generated and what they represent. Please reach out to us by sending us an email to support@crigenetics.com or calling our customer care team USA 1-800-571-9216; UK +44 8002081204. We look forward to a productive conversation with you to ensure you get the level of satisfaction you deserve. Have a great day!
Generally sketchy company
When I first ordered this product, I bought Everything they had to offer Including the health results etc. This was 6 years ago at that time they claimed that if you bought the health stuff that every time they added a new test it would be applied to your account for no additional cost, which was a big selling point to me. Well shortly after they changed it to a very overpriced subscription and despite having bought it prior to this they did not continue giving the results to me for the initial price I paid. This was blatant false advertisement. Next, they claim you own your DNA and are able to download the data, this is also not true, there is nowhere to download your data and when I contacted support, they did not provide a way for me to do this either. I am also suspicious about the results in general. Not just because there was stuff there I wasn't expecting or vice versa, but because I got a test for a non-blood relative of mine and his account is on mine as well. Well somehow their famous people report is exactly the same as mine, and I mean every single person listed is the same on both maternal and paternal sides. Again, I am not related to this person by blood at all nor are our families even from the same areas, so this just seems remarkably unlikely. I also contacted support about this and they just immediately said there was no mistake and blew me off. The speed at which they replied told me they did no actual checking to see if they had made a mistake.

Hello Jake! Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We're truly sorry for the frustration and disappointment you’ve experienced, and we appreciate you being candid about your concerns. We want to acknowledge them carefully and address each point as clearly as possible.
First, regarding the health reports and subscription model: to clarify, upon the completion of the test, the health reports made available that time were also activated, and over time our platform and offerings evolved into a subscription-based model as new reports, tools, and ongoing research were introduced. We apologize if this caused you to feel misled. Your feedback has been shared internally as we continue reviewing how we communicate long-term access and expectations.
Regarding raw DNA data access, while customers do own their DNA information, we currently do not offer raw data downloads. This decision is intentional and centered on data privacy and protection. Many third-party platforms that accept raw DNA files engage in data mining or secondary data use, sometimes without clear consumer consent. Our goal is to protect customers’ genetic information and our proprietary algorithms. That said, we understand why customers want access to their raw data, and this is something our leadership team continues to evaluate for the future with appropriate safeguards in place.
As for the Famous People report, we understand why seeing identical famous matches across two unrelated accounts would raise serious concerns. To clarify, these reports are generated based on deep ancestral haplogroup patterns (maternal and paternal line markers), not recent genealogical relationships. Because many individuals share ancient haplogroups, it is possible for different people even unrelated individuals to be associated with the same historical or notable figures at a high-level lineage context. That said, we're very sorry to hear that you felt your concern was dismissed. That is not the experience we want for any customer.
We want to assure you that we do take accuracy concerns seriously. If you’re open to it, we would be more than willing to have your account reviewed again. Please reach out to us by sending us an email to support@crigenetics.com or calling our customer care team USA 1-800-571-9216; UK +44 8002081204. We look forward to a productive conversation with you to ensure you get the level of satisfaction you deserve. Have a great day!

We’re glad you found the results interesting, and it’s especially exciting that the traits highlighted in your report align so well with your real-life experience. Looking younger and maintaining your natural hair color at 77 is truly remarkable, and your DNA can certainly play a role in those traits.

Would only recommend this product if you’re curious about your ancestry. That is possibly good but it’s not why I ordered the test. Health data is awful and the 80+ reports they give you are not very helpful. Might be worth it if you pay the extra $200 to see more reports but after how much a paid already I’m not checking that. Of the health reports I received, the data was incorrect and went directly against tests I’ve had from doctors so at this point I also don’t trust any of my results. I’ve had success with many other companies that provide health reports from DNA. Very unhappy. Do not recommend.

Hi Wayne! Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand why it may feel less in-depth than before.
Over time, we’ve refined how results are presented to focus on clarity, accuracy, and scientific confidence. In some cases, this means simplifying how information is displayed rather than overwhelming customers with speculative or less reliable details. The underlying analysis remains robust, but it’s delivered in a more streamlined and responsible way.

Hello Mike! Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re glad to hear you found the core ancestry information accurate, and we appreciate you sharing your concerns about the Famous Relatives feature.
To clarify, the famous people report is based on your mtDNA and/or Y-DNA, which follow your direct maternal or paternal line. It highlights notable historical individuals who belonged to the same haplogroup, meaning they share a very ancient genetic lineage with you.
This does not indicate a close or recent family relationship. In many cases, the shared lineage may go back thousands of years or more. These connections are identified using ancient DNA from historical remains, genealogical records, and genetic data from people who trace their direct line to known figures.
We understand how this feature can feel misleading if interpreted as a direct family connection, and we appreciate your feedback. Should you need further clarification, please reach out to us by sending us an email to support@crigenetics.com or calling our customer care team USA 1-800-571-9216; UK +44 8002081204.

I was expecting a complete DNA analysis to include not only major haplogroup but subclades which are very important in genealogy for identifying individuals and family. It is essential information. I asked if I may upload my DNA sample for further analysis. I was told no. CriGenetics is quite expensive to not provide this. There is also no disclosure upfront prior to purchase. I cannot recommend this company to anyone who requires a more detailed analysis.

Hello Michael! Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand your disappointment and appreciate you taking the time to explain your expectations.
Our reports are designed to provide comprehensive ancestry insights, including major haplogroups, but they are not intended to deliver the subclade-level detail required for advanced genealogical research as the haplogroups assigned is based on the genetic signature we got from the samples, nor do we currently support uploading external DNA files due to our strict privacy policy.

THIS WAS THE WORST EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD.
They gave incomplete data, gave themselves a deadline. Waited 4 more weeks for results. They sent email saying results were complete. Try and get results and there not complete, then they say after waiting and complaining that the data is corrupt. Well, if corrupt, was the data fabricated? How can I trust anything they say. The customer service robotic answer is "be patient". I can not trust a company that doesn't know whats going on especially with my DNA. On top of it they are keeping my money. They didn't complete a job they should not be aloud to keep my money. Any other company would be better than what I went thru.

Thank you for reaching out, and we apologize for any frustration you’ve experienced. We take your feedback very seriously.
Regarding the inconclusive reports: we analyze specific DNA segments and match them with historical time frames based on genetic patterns. For a report to be valid, we require a certain level of accuracy from the genetic markers we analyze. If the markers do not meet the necessary threshold, the report may be inconclusive or unable to be generated.
While specific reports may have been inconclusive, we want to reassure you that this does not affect the validity of the other reports you received. These reports are based on different genetic markers that were processed successfully and remain accurate and reliable.
Our ancestry reports are based on a research-grade estimation of BioGeographical Ancestry, with a confidence level of over 90%. This is one of the highest standards in the industry, and the other insights you received are still accurate and useful.
We hope this helps clarify the situation, and again, we apologize for any confusion. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to reach out.
