At Ancestry, we strive to always provide excellent customer service. We realize that when a customer makes a purchase from us, they are making an investment in their family and we take this trust very seriously.

The World Deluxe subscription provides you access to all of the records we have available on Ancestry.

We will notify him by email once the testing begins, and he may check the status of your DNA test at any time by logging into his account and selecting "DNA" in the top left corner.
