Latest Y-700 batches

[sasha39]

Just received this from FTDNA, part of the email here;

If you are waiting on Big Y-700 results, the below chart is a better guide for when you may expect to receive your results. The below dates are estimates, not guarantees, but we are confident in these delivery times.

so it looks like I'm in for more delays as the results I'm looking for are in batch 954 which falls in the March 20th - April 15th range.

I think this is my 6th delay. I did have to send in another DNA sample, but that was requested on March 27 and sent the next day. This was originally ordered 2/23/2019

Big Y-700	Y700	944	08/12/2019 - 08/26/2019	Results for your Big Y test have been delayed. We have updated your predicted completion date, and action by you is not usually required. Note that predicted dates are an estimate and subject to lab volume and quality control.

Second delay for my BIG700 batch 962:

08/05/2019 - 08/19/2019

Big Y-700	Batched	04/29/2019	962

Do not know what means Completed
Only Y-111 was completed on 05/14/2019

Batch 952 postponed to 7/29-8/12 for me, batched 3/29. Spoke to customer service a few weeks ago and they did not see any irregularities with my test.... I've been down this Big Y road before, it's done when it's done.

That's interesting because user DWFlinneage posting above you has received his results from the same batch as you in 952.

So I'm guessing batch numbers don't matter even when the tests are the same?

My second automatic delay for batch 960, now 07/29/2019 - 08/12/2019. This rather opaque repeated comment 'Note that predicted dates are an estimate and subject to lab volume and quality control.' only creates concern about my test accuracy. More transparency would be helpful.

My Big Y 700 results came in 7/11/2019, Batch 952.

[solarius]

I am in batch 954 and my dates are shown as 7/8/19 - 7/22/19

I'm part of the same batch and was batched on the 1st of April 19 and I just got my 3rd delay yesterday to say that my results won't be due until 07/22/19 - 08/07/19

[Benvdc]

First delay as expected forr batch 962

Now 07/22/2019 - 08/05/2019

[Kareem]

so this week we are on batches 940, 41, and possibly 42, is that the assumption?
my batch is 962, am i to understand that i should realistically expect results in the first week of september?

Batch 953 has been coming in late last week.
Hard to predict how long it will take. Maybe early September, but it depends on how long QAing takes for your kit. (Rarer lines will take longer)

[Kohlehydrat]

So, updating my earlier list.

---snipped---
Batch 939 batched Wed 6 Feb 2019, results received 4 July (21 weeks 1 day)
Batch 940 batched Mon 11 Feb 2019
Batch 941 batched Wed 13 Feb 2019

So, updating my earlier list.

Batch 928 batched Mon 31 Dec 2018, results received 7 March. (9 weeks 3 days)
Batch 930 batched Mon 7 Jan 2019
Batch 932 batched Mon 14 Jan 2019, results received 19 March (9 weeks 1 day)
Batch 933 batched Wed 16 Jan 2019
Batch 934 batched Mon 21 Jan 2019, results received 23 May (17 weeks 4 days)
Batch 936 batched Mon 28 Jan 2019
Batch 938 batched Mon 4 Feb 2019
Batch 939 batched Wed 6 Feb 2019, results received 4 July (21 weeks 1 day)
Batch 940 batched Mon 11 Feb 2019
Batch 941 batched Wed 13 Feb 2019

We have confirmation from FTDNA that the due dates mean nothing. If the results haven't come out by the due date, they automatically add two weeks to it. The most reliable indicator is the last processed batch number. It has taken them 4 weeks to process 3 weeks of kits. That's encouraging, it indicates they're close to fully operational again. But they have a huge backlog to get through, now.
