Hello Stacey! Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry to hear that you feel this way about your results.
We’d like to clarify that our reports are based on your genetic data and are designed to show your ancestral origins, rather than your nationality or place of birth. DNA testing reflects where your genetic markers originate from over many generations, which may differ from where you were born or currently live.
To ensure we support you thoroughly and address your concerns in detail, we have reached out regarding your case through #2859200 and will continue assisting you there. We’re committed to helping you better understand your results and answering any questions you may have.

Hi H Rodger! Thank you for sharing your feedback. I understand your concern about the level of detail compared to services like 23andMe or Ancestry.com.
It’s important to note that CRI Genetics takes a different approach. While other companies may focus primarily on genealogy or distant relative matching, our reports are based on genetics and research-grade bio-geographical analysis. This means that even if family records suggest certain ancestries, your DNA may reveal regions of origin that differ from expectations. Our emphasis is on accuracy and scientifically validated insights rather than just broader genealogical connections. We are constantly improving our algorithms and reporting features to provide more precise and detailed results, and we’ll notify you when these enhancements are available.
Your feedback is invaluable in helping us refine our services. We would also be glad to help you review your reports. 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!

This company charges approximately $100 for DNA reports that are below average. In my case, there was nothing particularly noteworthy about my report. Instead, CRI attempted to sell me additional products that should have been included in my initial request. I simply wanted to see if I had any other relatives.

Hi Daniel! Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.
We’ve reviewed your account and can confirm that all reports included in your purchase have already been fully activated. Additionally, we’ve sent you a detailed email addressing your concerns under ticket #2857021.
Regarding the Relative Finder feature, matches depend on other individuals in our database who have also tested and opted in. If close relatives have not participated, results may be limited or may not include familiar connections.
We understand your concerns about additional offerings and how that may have come across. Your feedback is important to us, and we are continuously working to improve both our services and overall customer experience. Please feel free to reply to the email we sent, and we’d be happy to continue assisting you there.
Very disappointing - Not worth the money!
Overall, very, very disappointing. Awaiting a refund, at least for two of our four unused kits. First, registering the kits online doesn't work so you have to call in. Then, the swab comes off the stick very easily and if you touch it or drop it, it ruins the test so have to start over. We did them by twos as the first two fell off. The other two family members didn't even bother doing them. Ancestry wise, they were ok (some surprises) although multiple pages and clicks - no one place to see, print, nor download it all. I chose this company to get details on the nutrition and health side and boy was it misleading... the additional reports I paid for were not very accurate (literally got my natural hair color wrong) and it just told me how likely it was or was not... it does not give what your actual DNA results they used, just mentions the markers sometimes. The website is very cumbersome to use. The dashboard has no real value. It is advertisements and trying to get you to buy more. The side bar lists every category and trait separately, so each one is a separate click, scroll, report load, scroll through the report, and a lot of the time it takes you back to the top of the page so you're repeating it over and over again. And sometimes, it refreshes and goes to a different person all together if you have multiple kits/people. There is nowhere on the site to get a full report of everything you were tested for. I thought maybe I missed it somewhere so inquired and was told there isn't one, nor can you obtain your own raw genomes for 'privacy reasons'... it's my DNA... why would you have to keep it private FROM ME! My doctor wants it, which was the reason I did this to begin with. Also, once you purchase a kit, the emails to try to get you to buy more services is relentless, even before you send your test back in. Multiple emails a day to get you to buy more, purchase a ring, a membership, more reports, etc.... absolutely horrible for what I paid!
Edited to add - The only good thing was the people I interacted with were nice but could not resolve my concerns and questions once I got the results or asked to speak to a supervisor.

Hello Rose! Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review. We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating this must have been, especially given your expectations for both usability and the depth of your results.
We want to acknowledge your concerns across the entire process, from kit registration and sample collection to the navigation of the dashboard, the level of detail in the reports, and the frequency of communications. Your feedback is valid, and we sincerely apologize that the experience did not meet your expectations.
Regarding your refund request, we can certainly assist in processing the refund for the two unused kits, and we’ll make sure this is handled appropriately.
For your concerns about the reports, please note that our results are designed to provide genetic insights based on analyzed markers, focusing on likelihoods and predispositions rather than definitive diagnoses. We understand, however, that this may not have been clearly communicated and may have felt misleading, this is something we are actively working to improve.
In terms of raw DNA data access, we understand your perspective. At this time, access is limited due to internal policies around data handling and privacy, but we recognize how important this is, especially when working with your doctor—and we appreciate you raising this concern.
We also hear your feedback regarding the platform usability and report accessibility. To provide some context, the reports are categorized and displayed independently so that each section can focus on specific information without overwhelming the system. Because of the large amount of data and file size involved in each report, combining everything into a single page can affect loading times and overall performance. Also, new reports are being launched every week, so the current format allows the customers to easily identify which are the new reports.
That said, we truly hear your concerns about the number of clicks, page resets, and switching between profiles, as well as the overall usability of the dashboard. Your feedback highlights areas where the experience can definitely be improved, and we will be sharing this with our team for further review.
Lastly, we sincerely apologize for the volume of emails you received. We can absolutely adjust your communication preferences to ensure you’re not receiving unwanted messages moving forward.
We truly appreciate your recognizing the efforts of our support team, and we’re sorry we fell short in resolving your concerns. If you’re open to it, we’d still like the opportunity to review your case further and see if there’s anything more we can do to make this right.
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!
Relative finder results
I didn’t like the results of my relative finder. I don’t recognize anyone on the list of extended family. I thought I would find connections with closer relatives. Also, I sent messages to all of my 6th degree cousins and I haven’t received a reply. It makes me wonder if they are really getting my messages.

Hello Carlos! Thank you for sharing your feedback and we completely understand how this can feel disappointing, especially when you were hoping to find closer or more familiar relatives.
Regarding the limited or more distant connections you’re seeing, this is typically due to one or both of the following:
No Known Relatives in the Database - DNA matches are only possible when biological relatives have also taken our test and are part of our database. If none of your close or recent relatives have tested with us yet, the system may only identify more distant genetic connections.
Privacy and Consent Settings - Some individuals choose not to participate in genetic matching or prefer to keep their information private. We fully respect these choices, which means they won’t appear as matches even if a genetic connection exists.
As a result, the matches shown are limited to individuals who have tested with us and have opted in to participate in relative matching. As more people join over time, there’s always a possibility that closer matches may appear.
Regarding messaging, please note that the ability to read and respond to messages is available to users who are subscribed to the All Access Premium subscription. If your matches are not subscribed to or not actively checking their accounts, that may be why you haven’t received replies.
We truly appreciate your understanding, and if you have any other questions or would like help reviewing your results, we’re here for you! You may 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.

It’s great to hear that you found the personality traits to be surprisingly accurate and recognizable. That’s exactly the kind of meaningful connection we aim to deliver through our reports.

Hello Ruben! That’s amazing to hear! We’re so glad your results were surprising and gave you new insights. It’s always exciting to uncover unexpected parts of your heritage.
I had an overall average experience
I had an overall average experience with this genetic testing company. The process itself was straightforward, and the results I did receive were fine—but nothing that really stood out compared to other services.
The biggest downside for me has been the lack of family connections. I’m still waiting for matches to come through, which is frustrating—especially knowing that many of my relatives have already taken genetic tests through other platforms and were able to find each other quickly.
For the price, I expected much more. It feels overpriced for what you actually get, particularly when compared to other options. I recently purchased a test through Ancestry for around $50, and based on what I’ve seen so far, I’m expecting better and more meaningful results there.
Overall, not a terrible experience—but definitely not worth the cost in my opinion.

Hello Marianne!
Thank you for sharing your experience. We understand your frustration with the wait for family connections. Matching can take time depending on how many relatives have tested with us and opted in to sharing.
While our reports focus on providing accurate ancestry and trait information, we know that family matching is an important part of the experience for many users. We appreciate your feedback on pricing and results, as it helps us improve the value we deliver.

I had waited a long time before I could…Misleading advertising or explanation of what valuable information I would receive. Disappointed doesn't even come close.
I had waited a long time before I could afford to order my genetic testing. I researched companies and thought CRI seemed like the best choice for me.I think advertising for all of these companies is very flawed. I am so profoundly upset over the lack of information that I received in regards to family history and wellness.The information provided may be accurate but for me it was so generic that I feel like it could have been dug out of the trash. I know for money spent it is not going to open up the world to you. However for me it provided no factual information that I could even verify because there was not enough information provided where I could fact check anything. I wanted to learn a little about my people to give me a sense of belonging and where I come from. On the health side my family has traits ofsome specific health issues and that I might be able to understand how far back some of these traits went back my family. I received no information that I was expecting. That may be my fault for not truly understanding what is provided. I learned nothing of my family other than it is all European descent and percentages and in my opinion no actual health related information at all. They could have just printed a short report with the data that I actually received. It was stated that for additional fees I could obtain more information. Thought that was what I paid for. I do understand that for the millions of people ordering this information you are only going to get a specific amount due to cost and time.I just feel so completely let down and I was so excited. I personally do not feel like I was given any information that I considered to be of value to me. I was just left feeling deflated.

Hello Jana! Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we’re truly sorry to hear how disappointed you feel especially after looking forward to your results for so long.
We understand that the reports may have felt too general, particularly if you were hoping for more detailed family history or specific health insights. Our results focus on bio-geographical ancestry and genetic traits, which can sometimes feel limited compared to personal expectations.

Hello Ollie! Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the information in your report felt too general and did not meet your expectations.
Here at CRI Genetics, we value accuracy over precision, and so the chosen regions and information in the reports allow us to maintain our 90%+ accuracy rate. Because many neighboring populations share very similar genetic markers, broader regions are sometimes used to ensure the results remain scientifically reliable.
Please also note that all reports included in your purchase are automatically activated once the DNA test is completed, so you should already have access to all the reports that were part of your order. Any additional reports offered later are optional features that customers may choose to unlock if they want further insights.
That said, we would be glad to review the reports included in your purchase with you to make sure everything has been properly activated and to help clarify any information that may seem unclear.
As our algorithm and reference database continue to improve, providing state-of-the-art ethnicity estimates that are not only accurate but also more precise remains one of our top priorities.
Thank you again for your feedback, and please feel free to reach out if you would like us to review your reports together.
