Ancestry Playing Up!
« on: Thursday 29 November 07 18:57 GMT (UK) »
After a lot of 'technical problems' for the last several days, Ancestry seems to have completely lost the plot tonight!

Anyone else having problems?

Is this a common with Ancestry now?
I can access the census though for the last two day's can not seem to view the Bt phone books that are updated...
I keep getting error and a small yellow triangle on the left corner of the page any ideas what this is folks?
Many thanks :)

Hi

I cannot reproduce your problem.  The phone books have just worked OK for me.  You might need to just try twice or press your reset button.

Little yellow triangles often signify that Ancestry has an alternative name to the one shown in the index.

Good luck
