I hope it is not a big tree then.

I doubt very much that GR are ‘working on’ anything

You’d probably be better just to add your tree on GR one person at a time

You could use a GEDCOM Validator or Consistency Checker to check that there aren't any errors on your GEDCOM.

This, or similar, is a frequent problem on GR.
People often find it says "uploading" for hours or days, with nothing apparently happening.

Have you tried emailing them directly?

They usually reply within 3-5 working days.

Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

Hello. I've received an error message several times over several days, after selecting the latest gedcom file on my computer, and telling GR to upload it. I used the Help Centre or Support Team contact form nearly a fortnight ago to report this, but haven't had a response (including into my Junk Mail folder). Does anyone know of a current issue with uploading gedcoms that is being worked on? Thank you.
Matthew Wilde.

Researching:
In and near Sheffield, Yorkshire, England: Wilde; Barringham (also in the Netherlands around 1800); Fretwell; Turver; and Turner and Scholey, in the 17th and 18th centuries. In India: Longhurst and Thomas (in Lucknow). I shall not be renewing my subscription, when it expires on 19/3/21, after decades of membership. I have not been able to upload the latest version of my family tree for some months, and several requests for help have not been responded to. In its early years, I did make contact with many previously unknown cousins through Genes Reunited - for which I will always be grateful.
