A sampling of reviews submitted by our customers: "Really exceptional service & speed with shipping. Also, exceptional dna report. Lots of fun." "Our experience with this Merchant has been Great!! We have told many friends & family about our experience and they are going to also order from DNA Tribes. Thank you." "DNA Tribes offers a unique and valuable product for those that are interested in genealogy and family history, and does so for a very reasonable price. Their products are actually much more comprehensive than any other I found on the market while researching/shopping, and yet it is offered for up to a 50% discount off of other similar products. They also offer very responsive customer service...when I requested a status, I had a response (email) within 15 minutes. My results were also emailed late on Sunday evening...a dedicated team! Even a follow up inquiry that required additional research and clarification on their part was answered within slightly more than 24 hours. Overall, this is a very good merchant to deal with, on all consumer levels, and I would highly recommend their service." "Very happy with DNA Tribes and their excellent service." "This is my third interaction with this company, this time it was a gift for a family member. I am very pleased with their products and service." "It helped our family to come together and discuss our nationality. We never image that we were so many nationalities. My mother who is 84 years old always believed that she was 100% Polish. We now know that she isn't. We always wanted to know if my father was Native American Indian. We know that we are Indian but not what we ever imaged. We are Alaskan Indian and not Memonanee. We now are more interested in our heritage. My daughters want to know about their father and will be taking the DNA Tribes to answer their questions about his heritage. It is important to realize that everyone is contacted to everyone else in the world and this test shows how we are all contacted." "Ordering DNA test was quick and easy. Received the kit in about a week and when I mailed back my DNA samples for analysis I received my results in about a week. The service was excellent and the product (final genealogy DNA results) was also excellent. Thanks again!" "I would be happy to write this review. DNA Tribes is one of the most courteous, efficient, factual and supportive sites, Ive ever had the pleasure of visiting. Their information is timely, their support team helpful, fast and courteous, and navigating through the web pages is a joy. I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking information on genetic searches and family heritage." "They are extremely efficient with customer service and their services are great. They deliver the information to you in a swift amount of time. Great company purchased from twice and highly recommend." "Mr. Lucas Martin at DNA Tribes has always been very professional and prompt with good detailed replies, all very well written. I think the service and the learning it provides is wonderful. I have recommended DNA Tribes to friends as a result. Besides learning some neat things about your own family's past, you end up learning ancient history while you're at it, trying to explain how it worked out the way it did. So at work, I helped review a friends results, based on my own learning. As I was explaining how groups of DNA travelled to form the current populations, he turned to me and called me a history buff. You end up becoming one doing this. Its great. I particularly like the way that DNA Tribes breaks down the matching into contextual scenarios. Some populations are stable, some move around as diaspora, and then there is a comprehensive summary of your regional origins. It takes a little learning to understand it, but you do find it more informative this way. Mr. Martin has always been ready to provide help understanding all of this. Thanks!" "I especially appreciated the near instant responses to my questions. I also appreciated the well developed website regarding DNA Genealogical information and options for utilization of this service." "Thank you, you`re a great help and service to people like me." "Great product! Great service!" "I have gotten so much more info for my money than any other place I know about. I will stick with them forever!" "The DNA kits came with very good instructions. The results came via email, and the customer service rep was very good about answering my questions. The website itself was very well laid out, especially considering the technical level of DNA testing and molecular biology, not easy for the layperson to understand. Probably the average person would find the explanations a little daunting, but the email communications with the service rep really did help." "I have been very satisfied with DNA Tribes. Ive received very good, knowledgeable, thorough, well written responses to my questions, a fast turnaround, and quality information from the genetic population matching. This provider is probably the best one for world population matching, as far as I can tell. They have the highest number of sampled world populations as they are found on the ground, about 800 . Their reporting format is the best, because they separate your matching populations into three main groups - stable native populations, then a combination of native and diaspora populations, then a composite regional grouping. In this format you can see the story of your history take shape, rather than as a single list... although that single list is available too if you want it. They also test your composite DNA with the highest number of markers available: 21. Other providers (also good ones) have been testing up to 15. DNA Tribes had tested my sample with 13 markers in early November 2007, then updated my profile with 15 markers in late November 2007, now they re-did my sample for 21 markers in March 2008. The early 13 marker test was in general agreement with another test I had done elsewhere, given me a good basis for comparison. Then, watching my information be further refined by re-testing with 15 and then 21 markers has been absolutely fascinating and exciting. I thoroughly recommend DNA Tribes." "Very good after sales service." "I am very pleased with DNA Tribes' service. Their turnaround time is amazingly fast. They did a great job of explaining the results of the testing. I found them to be very responsive to my questions and concerns. They were so courteous and the DNA tests (& add-ons) were highly informative. I will definitely use DNA Tribes again and I highly recommend the company due to their strong customer focus." "Remarkable return response. Great information." "Overall, the purchase and response was very good and timely. All the instructions and information was understandable and I was impressed with the turn around time of my results. I have recommended dna tribes to several friends and family members." "So affordable, so easy, and so wonderful to finally know who I am! They were quick about their service, and even quicker about getting my results back to me." "I had a very good experience dealing with dnatribes.com. I would refer them to everyone." "I was very happy with the results of my DNA profile. I am adopted, and have always wondered what my ethnicity was. Good program!" "You're doing a great service and keep up the great work, Thank you." "Customer service was excellent. All emails were answered within 24 hours, usually less. The reports were colorful, information useful and in depth. I had to ask customer service to clarify some points which were answered to my satisfaction. I would recommend DNA Tribes for anyone interested in their DNA lineage." "This was a very easy transaction. I did a price comparison and the price was excellent. I had questions concerning my results and received very quick responses from customer service. Thanks Lucas!" "I used this test to determine background for genealogical research. The results are detailed, easy to read and very thorough. We were very impressed with the level of service, ease of use and the quick turn-around time. We plan to purchase another test for my husband for his family research. He had done another test in the past through another company and the results weren't half as thorough as this test. I would not waste my time with any other company. DNA Tribes is wonderful." "This has been an amazing tool in learning more about my own heritage and DNA makeup! Although there are things that are difficult for me to understand, it is easy to obtain answers and more information from the staff. I cant wait to learn more with the continuous updates!" |
