Hiya, On the hot match page where it says 'tick box and dont show me these again', do I tick the box before I discard match or what? Does it work? Thanks Denise x

It doesn't matter which way around you do it - they disappear from one place and go to another and they stay there FOREVER to haunt you.!!!!!!!!!!!! (ooOOOOoooOOOOoooo!!!) Creepy or what??????????? You cannot really get rid of any of them whatever you do. - They stay in discarded matches. - 'discarded' but NEVER forgotton!!! ???????? Dea x

For the last two batches, all I have had are several pages of matches with a single surname ADAMS, who are not remotely important to me, but nothing more. I decided to change my account preferences, and will never get them again. A relief.

After trawling through a long list of hot matches yesterday, I made contact with a definite link to my tree and have exchanged information. This is the second successful hot match since June this year. Clare
