Ancestry removing matches less than 8cM

[Janethepain]

About 9.50 pm - they seem to have run, whatever it was they were running, for me anyway. I've lost about 3.5 k matches from my own match list, with about 5k off both my Dad's and my cousin's lists!!

Confirmed all non tagged 6 & 7 cM matches are now hidden  .

Do you think we should start saving our 8cM-9cM matches?

(just because these were given a decimal point like the 6cM-7cM matches)

They are still showing photos of matches  that I presume are less than 8cm because they are not accessible.

I did still get a shared match of a shared match who is 7.5 but otherwise the small matches have gone

Same here this morning. Yesterday I had 40k matches; today I have 19k. They've culled over 50% of my matches. Livid.

The saddest thing of all - clicking on 'unviewed' and no matches coming up at all.

Has anyone else not had any new matches since the cull? I was getting about six a day before it happened but nothing since Monday  Also got a snotty reply from Ancestry when I told them how the total number of matches has been halved - got ordered to use the suggestion box instead. Not too friendly, are they?

Snap Fleming!

I haven’t had any new matches since the cull either...
