How this company uses Trustpilot
See how their reviews and ratings are sourced, scored, and moderated.
There are som quirks. For example, one can set the time parameters by clicking on year, month, etc. but then it is necessary to type in the paramater, eg, mm/dd/yyyy. Once this is done, all the appropriate articles come up at once and can be sorted by date. Generally intuitive.

They were very quick to respond to my request. They couldn’t help me but didn’t try to offer something I didn’t need.

Mindy stood by me until I completely understood what to do and how to do it. She’s extremely patient with me.

I suggested two Worcester MA newspapers to add to your collection. Your response was prompt, gracious, and encouraging. Many thanks!

I contacted them about cancelling a trial membership and the agent was very helpful and the refund has been completed already.

I received the book I ordered through the mail. The package was enclosed in plastic with a message from the USPS that they were sorry, but it was damaged in processing.
The damage was some very strong smelling glue like substance that made my eyes water. I did open it but found that the substance had seeped through the cardboard and had penetrated through to the top of several pages of the book. I repackaged it put it outside since the smell was so horrible.
Went to the Post Office the next day and they said they were sorry they could not do anything and suggested I contact the sender.
I did and reached Renee. She said she would look into what could be done and to keep all of the packaging in case they would need to see it, which I did.
Then I received a message from her saying that the Company would send me a new copy and I no longer had to keep the original book and packaging.
I am looking forward to receiving the new book and learning a bit more about DNA.
Renee was very pleasant and professional and is a excellent representative for your Company.

I was impressed with the search results. I just did not need to keep searching, thank you. When I cancelled the trial period, I was mistakenly charged, but this was swiftly resolved in a matter of one working day. Thank you 😊

I hope Genealogy Bank improves in the coming year with newspapers and the database search features.

GenealogyBank is my source for historical data. From family obits to the humor of misdeeds the newspapers capture more than the admitted truths. This is the best place to find stories of the past and weave them into your own personal narrative.
Anytime I have used the customer service I have been met with courteous, friendly, and helpful people. I always recommend this site to others, it is an asset.

I am able to find more here than newspapers.com, it will show up here and not there most times, even though the papers were available on the other site.
