Hi Leonard, I know that AOL users were having problems with the myfamily website and we apologize for the delay. But I think the master-minds are working to exterminate the bug causing the problem. I feel sure that we will get a update from one of the experts shortly. Thanks for posting to the list, it's great to hear from you even if it was a negative feedback. We (PRA) will get this taken care of and we thank you for your patience during this transition.
