As a long time experienced user of Findmypast I feel as if the rug has been pulled from under my feet since the "improved" version was introduced earlier this month. The strengths of the old site were the simplicity of its searches... these have now become cumbersome and laborious and don't deliver the goods. Record sets are difficult to find and are not logically arranged...in fact the whole experience has become so frustrating that my research has been put on "hold". Findmypast has made a disastrous retrograde step here and from being one of the best genealogical websites I would now rate it as one of the worst..... if you are looking for value for money, look elsewhere.
In summary, I would not recommend FindMyPast.com to a friend.
