Does anyone know how to get rid of the red in the Extras tab? I'm not at all interested in their holiday ancestral tours, etc. I've arranged my own in the past, and will continue to do so, myself. This particular aspect is a really annoying intrusion 
I've also been trying for ages and your post prompted me to have another go yesterday - and hey presto this morning the red blob on the extra's tab has gone.
All I did was to go on to the tab and open everything that was available - all the trips I didn't want to go on etc. Previously I had opened the tab but not all the other options to 'learn more...'
It only disappeared overnight though, not immediately.
Have a go.
