Too much unassigned for such an expensive test

I bought this test a month ago and I overall liked the features and the ancestry results seem accurate. However, I got too much unassigned DNA. I think that if I am paying so much money for this, 23andMe should increase their reference groups' data samples so that Latinos do not get such high unassigned %. I have been reading complaints like mine from Latinos everywhere over the internet and I can't agree more with them. Work on that.

The 23andme DNA kit provided me with answers that I have had for most of my life. It provided results which led me to find out who my father was. Not knowing for over 50 years has brought closure and satifaction to me. Thank you.

tested as I am looking for my Biological father. My mother passed away in England when I was 7, after which the man she married after I was born took me out of the country illegally to USA. I was not adopted. At 58 thru DNA I discovered he was not my Biological father. Recent 2nd cousin connection, and her family member testing has led me to know my biological father was from Catalonia Spain region. So this test has been and invaluable tool. Very grateful for all you do.

I have found a brother and many, many relatives or family. I am the bloodline of Emperors, Kings, Nobility, and Aristocratic Families. I am the direct descendant of Naia of The Yucatan. I hold more Neanderthal traits then 98% of 23andme clients tested to date. I am partially Jewish, I am also Indigenous Native American Indian, English, Scottish, French, and German. All the Stories legends and tales I ever heard from my Mother and Father are all true, more than true. So if you would like to know the adventure through the millennia which is your family, 23andme is much more than a test it also is an insight into your health Factors and possibly early detection of ailments and disorders that may plague you. With over 1400 relatives and counting who have taken the test so far. who knows? We may be related. Thank you.

I am so very Happy i did this, being adopted and not having much to go on and no real help from the church this has opened doors i never dreamed of. Meeting relatives from all over the world and making connection, some saying hi or welcome to the family to other saying ha cuz let's get together for a pint . I can't wait for this pandemic to lighting up so i can meet blood family and start making lasting relationships. Thank you.

Big secrets in Little China

Always thought there was something and possibly scandalous about my mother’s adoption. Adoptive WWII grandparents always used to respond to questions about her origins by emphasizing that “it doesn’t matter, we’re all Americans and that’s the important thing.” That was weird, and so was the fact my mom seemed trained to be defensively disinterested. Crazy to imagine, if the Chinese Exclusion act never occurred, my family composition might be much different. Equally crazy is finding one source that makes my DNA less than 100% European in comparison with relatives in the UK or even my 1st cousin.
During the current racial divisions, I am delighted to find family history that diverts from the narrative I’ve been spoon fed. My grandparents often made disparaging remarks about Asians, and this information puts that In a brand new context.
I knew my dad and grandparents, but did not have a good relationship with them, and was not privy to a lot of information that at this point is available via Google. Have a lot of historical figures with my last name, lots of fame and infamy regarding colonialism, the slave trade, and then criticism of the slave trade.
