Everyone should pat themselves on the back , we all had to be very patient , like trying not only to find my son , but to also connect emotionally, this was the biggest challenge.

Do Not Trust This Company
Relative connections has a 3 stage process.
1. 299 fee to begin a search
2. 499 fee when person is found
3. 499 fee to contact the person as a intermediary process.
I was searching for a family member and was told within a week they had been found, I paid for all 3 costs above and they started the contact. For 3 months I waited to hear back, anxious and sad that the relative had not responded.
After many months I found out the person handling the case (Olivia) had left the company and handed nothing over to the team. When the team looked at it they realised the wrong individual had been found, they then ran a new search for the right person, and in this search found they were adopted which meant they could not contact the person. Had this been done correctly, there would be no need to pay for the Intermediary service, instead, they took an extra £499 for contacting who bloody knows.
There was no apology, no admittance to getting it completely wrong, and the worse part being no sympathy for the distress they put me through.
Honestly if they were honest - they would realise one paid for something that was there mistake.
Do not use them and find other tracing companies.
EDITED 12 NOV: Look at their response, we charged you for a finder's fee however, we would stop when it was an adopted person, but failed to mention they made me pay for an intermediary service when they got the wrong person.
I did not even comment the fact that they did not even call after I tried ringing 4 times, everything over emails, took ages to get in touch.
Guys, own up to your mess. Say sorry and move on.

Please do not use this company
Please do not use this company. Finding family is a very emotional and raw experience and you are willing to do anything to find them. I was desperate and spent over £1k. There was an initial fee, which I thought was fair for the research required. Communication was non-existent. I phoned and emailed so many times, with no response. When I did finally speak to someone, they started to give me someone else's information.
They then contacted me to say they had found a family connection and I would need to pay more for them to reach out on my behalf. I did, only to give up after a few months and found my half-siblings myself in 2 days using FreeBMD, a few leaps of faith, google and facebook!
It might be that my situation was complicated as my siblings had moved to the US, but they said they had colleagues over there who could investigate, though I never heard anything. This has been one of my most heart breaking experiences and would not recommend them to anyone.
Post note: I have tried phoning them a few times since they said they would review the case. Having spoken to 2 separate people, their lack of responsibility and response is astounding.

I wanted to find a non-relative
I wanted to find a non-relative, and was told it would cost £900, in three equal stages.
Stage 1. Pre-paid, non-refundable Initial Search.
Outcome:- They've got some info, .......end of.
Stage 2. Pre-paid Report, recieved birth certificate details, to confirm person's identity, and they
re-iterated the search clues I had initially provided.
Person now deceased.
Stage 3. Contact Letters.
I declined the up-front payment for them to write three Recorded Delivery letters (yes, as per their original Quotation) to relatives.
Why would I do that?
I had no evidence if they had actually done anything, or that the person was dead or still alive, that they knew if/who/where the relatives live ,or if they would have proven if/where they had sent the letters.
The whole exercise cost me £600,....... for nothing.
I was also suspicious about non-returned calls, and messages, and more than one of the contacts went absent, or a fortnight's holiday,
I could never get hold of Jake, "Do you know his surname? the receptionist asked, after she had told me RC "are only a small company?
Smacks, doesn't it.
I regret the day I contacted them.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY TO MY REVIEW SUE🌷
I agree to to most of it, here are my constructive comments :-
Yes, I understood and accepted your Terms and Conditions.
Yes, you informed me that my friend was sadly deceased.
I was however, disappointed by the lack of response to my several requests for call-backs, due to absenteeism and silence.
Yes, I was made aware of exactly who and what both Jake and Jacob were, and made it quite specific, which person I was trying to contact, kindly check your voice recordings?
I did not request you to contact relatives of my friend, because I thought paying you another £300, just to write three letters, was unreasonable. Up to that point, you had not yet provided me with any credible evidence, to justify me having paid the previous £600.
I hope you accept my fair and honest opinion of your efforts.
kind regards,
John Evans.

I contacted Relative Connections to…
I contacted Relative Connections to help me locate a friend in Spain who I met whilst working out there many years ago. From my initial consultation to my intermediary support, the team were so helpful, efficient and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble and no questions or conversation was ever dismissed. My friend and I are now back in regular contact and reminiscing about adventures in Spain
Gracias!

THINK VERY CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS SERVICE
THINK VERY CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS SERVICE - VERY COSTLY AND NO FURTHER FORWARD
I contacted Relative Connections to try and find my son. I was told just a few hours later that he had been found, however was provided with a 2 line report which contained 3 errors, the searches had been done using incorrectly spelt name and address, which gave me little confidence in the accuracy of the findings.
I phoned and spoke to the researcher who tried to reassure me and he promised to re-do the report but instead it was never done and he went on long term leave, totally unprofessional.
After I had to chase it the 2nd report was done by a colleague, however vital information was omitted that had been discussed previously.
They apologized over and over for the errors and distress caused and promised to provide a 3rd report. At this point I had paid out almost 800 yet still didn't know if they had located the correct person.
They advertise that they give you support all the way but I needed support from Day 1 but got none.
Separately, following an online review posted by my daughter as she was extremely concerned about the way I had been treated, I received an email warning of possible legal action unless the review was taken down. I complied immediately but I feel the tone of this correspondence was unnecessarily aggressive and inappropriate especially given the sensitive personal circumstances I had already discussed with the staff.
When I started this journey to look for my son I always intended to follow it through to the intermediary service but there is no way now after the way I have been treated.

We found the team to be totally professional throughout the whole process. They listened to our needs and we felt that they had all our interests at heart.

Excellent
From the very beginning of my search the team have been compassionate, professional & patient. They took time to understand my story & explained the process clearly. They treated my search with care & respect. They have given me the opportunity to connect with an entire family I had never known, which is amazing.
I would recommend Relative Connection wholeheartedly.
Thank you

11 years and still waiting!
I instructed Relative connections ( finder monkey) to find my fathers family. I explained the situation fully to them and they felt confident that they would find them, after all they have a 92% success rate!!!They asked for an initial down payment ( £500 I believe it was), and said that they would be requesting the remainder when they had exhausted the down payment. They sent me a DNA test kit. Then about a week later they asked for the balance ( again £500 as I recall). This did raise alarm bells as why they would need the balance when the search had just begun, but I had to remind myself that their average time to find someone is only 28 days or less, so no need to worry!!
At first I was able to contact them and get a progress report, even though each time I was told that there was nothing to report. The months rolled by and still nothing was found, they even said that every week I would get a phone call just to keep me up to date with the search, but after about 2 weeks that stopped. I would call their office but alas my " Dedicated Personal Agent"who was there to support me throughout the whole process and keep me up to date as the search progresses was on another call or that they weren't in today, either way I would have to recall them!
When I did manage to speak with someone, they said that they would have to wait for a 1st cousin DNA match, before they would look at my case again and to call them when that happens.
About 2-3 weeks ago I received a 1st cousin DNA match, not forgetting their " Our Happy Trace Guarantee"so I quickly got on the phone to give them this exciting breakthrough news. But sadly my Dedicated Personal Agent, couldn't get to the phone, but they would get back to me shortly if I left a message, but 3 weeks later i'm still waiting. So I decided to make contact with this new DNA match. I still haven't made that breakthrough to finding my dad's family, but if I had known 11 years ago what I know now I would have saved myself a whole lot of money and just bought a DNA test kit and waited for a 1st cousin match, but then I wouldn't have benefited from Relative connections unique "Happy Face Guarantee", where you can call them at any time if you are not happy with their work.

Clarity on Fees
Just to be clear on fees. You pay an initial £300 and are told it is another £500 when they find the person and an ‘optional’ £500 for them to facilitate the connection. We got a call within a couple of hours to say they had found our contact. We would have to pay another £500 but for that they would tell us nothing, no address or contact detail. Nor would they make any contact. So we would have to pay the second £500 fee for them to make contact. Of course we would have no proof they had even found her. Feels a lot like a scam and yes we should have understood the small print better but the terms and conditions written as a difficult to understand legal document.

Excellent service and care
I can honestly say that every contact that I had with Relative Connections was first class. John was my main point of contact, and he was always very caring and thoughtful. I was not technically their client, but incredibly was put in touch with a half sister, that neither myself or my full biological sister were aware of previously. We have had the happiest of endings and thanks to John and the company, the whole experience was amazing.

Would highly recommend
I did some research before finding Relative Connections, they were recommended on Trust Pilot.
I went to them with very little information but they found out about my Family history.
They were very professional and did exactly what they said they would do.

The service was excellent
The service was excellent. My supposed sister was found in less than 24 hours. Communication and support for both parties were handled really well. Although the outcome was not quite what I had hoped for, I still highly recommend Relative Connections. I am confident they will help you find who you are looking for. All I provided was a marriage certificate. Sue Harrison was my case handler and she is amazing to work with!

Wanting to be reconciled
I have found this company very very caring and they have kept me in the loop 🔁
I have not seen or heard from my daughter 👧 in ten 🔟
So at last they have found her but there is a proper procedure to follow which I am very happy 😊 with
Sue the lady I am dealing with is so so helpful I would have no problems in recommending this company and fingers crossed 🤞 me & my daughter 👧 are brought back together again
This will be like 👍 my birthday’s 🎉 & Christmas 🎅 coming at once!

Terrible
Terrible, I reached out to relative connections to support me on my search and they were very keen to take the first 2 payment instalments. Since then despite chasing numerous times they have not provided me with a plan of action to take forward, short of sending 2 letters and doing some basic research it was not worth the £1200 paid.
Given the nature of this company you would expect more care and consideration on follow through, communication.
Overall I would 100% not recommend using them, and I will be requesting a refund through the necessary channels.

They found my mother after 46 years
I am very happy with the service provided I was adopted at birth and this company managed to track down my birth mother and initiate contact between the two of us. It’s been two weeks now and we are arranging to meet. I have found out I have brothers and sisters I knew nothing about. I’m very happy.

Promising journey to a very happy destination.
I was very hesitant about using Relative Connections, I was probably more nervous about finding out the truth. I am so glad that I did pick up the courage to contact Relative Connections, from the first communication to the last they have been exemplary. They explained that it will take time, they make no promises but will do there very best ensuring confidentiality, excellent support, guidance and understanding along the journey. My journey took a couple of years but patience prevailed and I have arrived at a very happy destination - my new found beautiful, wonderful sister

My goodness beware
My goodness, these people are daylight robbers, lazy, uncaring, very very sparing with truth and if you dare question anything, Wow Sue goes into full flow of “you are wrong and we are right”, and finds every excuse not to carry out the work they have been paid very dearly for. They really should be legitimately investigated, I feel quite sick they have no conscience about taking my money and have FAILED 100% to find my brother, and refusing to reimburse for their failure. I feel totally hurt by their attitude.
Well here we go again. Please answer ONE question. Why do you think I say you have failed 100%. You come out with such rubbish explanations to promote yourself. You have ignored my requests. Again please answer my question.

Reunited with my Dad
After 22 years myself and my Dad have been reunited and I couldn't be happier. I looked for many years for him but they traced him in a matter of weeks and now we are making up for lost time. They didn't mind being called if I had any questions and I would highly recommend them if you are searching for loved ones.
