Coming Soon: Y-DNA Haplogroups for Family Finder

[ArmandoR1b]

I manage a FTDNA kit. The company has its low, like it never achieved its MTDNA quality test and asked me for MORE MONEY or "we will not test it" (cause it is in the little print that we can "not deliver you a test and ask you more money if our quality check fails twice"), and it has it ups: the kit went from a Y37 M-269 to NINE branches down with the FF expansion. Now waiting for their MTDNA expansion, as the guy I manage the kit refused to pay another 50$ to re-test the full MTDNA not delivered -also, they charge you 50$ and test ONE TIME, if their quality check fails, BAM! you lose this money also.

mtDNA expansion? That's not going to happen since mtDNA was not tested by Family Finder. Y-DNA was tested by FF. It costs money to test DNA which is why they charge for more tests when low quality samples are sent to them and tested.

There are mtDNA SNPs on the Family Finder chip and FTDNA has already announced they will be adding mtDNA haplogroups for FF customers after they finish with the Y haplogroups. 

Introducing Y-DNA Haplogroups for Family Finder Customers

What about mtDNA haplogroups?
We didn’t forget about mtDNA! Once the rollout of Y-DNA haplogroups is complete, we’ll begin work to bring mtDNA haplogroups to all Family Finder customers. You can expect an announcement regarding mtDNA haplogroups next year.

Its good to be wrong
