The reason they don't match the place is because they haven't trained us to put the place names in uniformly yet..... for instance i may put Wandsworth and you may put London.... it could still be an exact match but if the place names were filtered then we wouldn't get them! xx

I have 45 pages and it's taking ages. Don't mind if the matches are at least surnames in my tree but when I'm given surnames I don't even have it gets a bit tedious. Daisy

I've just had two Not Matches to Blytons...never heard of them, they arent in MY tree. And, anyone else noticed just how many Mary Bells there were in the world? A suspiciously large number of them from Kalangaloo.... *gets atlas out to see if that's anywhere near Derby* OC

I have thirty pages of Hot Matches. I have a 'Brown' thing going on in my tree. To be honest I don't even look at hot matches, I just check 'my tree matches' everyday to see if someone new has come along. Carol x

I found the hot matches service to be such a pain that I deleted my tree and left just one name. len

You do not have to check them all at once. I just check a few a day and that way it becomes less tiresome.
