Just before Christmas, GR announced that in future, they would be matching pob as well as name and dob.

I suspect that as a result of that change, they might be having some teething problems with running the program, which will now take considerably longer to run, or that, simply, there are now far fewer matches, so the likelihood of getting any each time has reduced dramatically.

The program only matches a handful of your names each time (100, I think it is) and if none of those match you get nothing reported to you.

Have Genes Reunited stopped sending HOT MATCHES as I haven't received any since before Christmas, and I used to get them every month.
