I will be looking to see if I am entitled to free extra tools as I was tested by MyHeritage. I could always try uploading my own MyHeritage data again and see if that works.

If you tested with them then you should already have access to the tools.

I have had a look to confirm, but I think because my test was free as part of the MyHeritage DNA Quest project I get prompted to sign up for a subscription when I try using any of the tools.

I have deleted my cousin's DNA from Myheritagedna and uploaded it again, to take advantage of this offer. It has been very frustrating over the past few months not to be able to access these tools.

I'll have to see what nationality they give him this time!  :)

How did it go with the deletion and re-upload Margaret? I have been contemplating doing the same with the kits I uploaded previously. Any issues to be aware of?

Craclyn, No problems so far, I can't be any worse off, as uploads are already free there.

Comments to DNA geek blog about this offer suggested the delete/upload again method.

I only did it yesterday, waiting for results to see what happens, takes 5 days.

Martin, I get prompted for a subscription, but not when looking at DNA matches.

Have you got access to chromosome browser and shared matches?

This is what I missed when viewing my cousin's results.

I don't know if myheritageDNA will allow you to upload a myheritage file which is the same as the data already there. Worth a try.

If it doesn't work, it would be well worth you paying to access these tools, which are amongst the best DNA tools available from the various sites.

I managed to upload my FTDNA data, originally downloaded from MyH, but it will take 5 days to process.  I have also up
uploaded the same data to a new MyH account, but again I have to wait 5 days. On my original free test account I can't use the tools. Thanks Margaret and Craclyn.
