Recently they updated my results and replaced my Irish 19% with 3% Welsh and telling me the rest of that percentage was Scottish DNA, taking my 5% Iberian Peninsula off me, shaving 1% off my Baltic DNA, while bumping my Swedish DNA up to 18% and shaving some German %s off me.
I also did a test through MyHeritage, and while they just clump you into large vague ethnic groups, my Baltic DNA wasn't mentioned as it was in my AncestryDNA test, and there was a 5.9% of my DNA that was from the Balkans in MyHeritage, that didn't show up in my AncestryDNA test ... just yet anyway:-)
So, what's the point in taking a test to tell your family what ancestry you have when in a few months' time after you have told everyone you are 19% Irish and 5% Iberian Peninsular and only 6% Swedish they turn around and update your DNA test to tell you that you are 0% Irish and Iberian Peninsular, and now 18% Swedish to boot?
I already knew most of my mother's side of the family have a Danish history anyway, so I guess in a few month's time they will be telling me I'm 18% Danish instead of being Swedish.
And what's going to be the big new surprise for me next time they update my DNA?
