I was getting a BETTER answer with Y-DNA 67, at least I-P109 haplogroup, don't give that I need a Y-DNA 700 to get a P109 or better.

Thank you for contacting FamilyTreeDNA.
How can I help?
Gary Barach
Hi Connor, have you read my cut and paste?
Connor
I can see that you've pasted an email exchange with Casimir, yes.
What is it that you are asking about in that email?
Gary Barach
When I did my kit# 177090 ydna 67 I was getting at least P109 haplogroup, and now when I did this Ydna 111 Im getting just M-253
Connor
P109 is not a haplogroup prediction provided by a base Y-STR test like the Y-67. If you had a more refined haplogroup before your Big Y, it likely would have come from the additional SNP testing that was ordered shortly after your Y-67 results initially posted.
Gary Barach
So the most refined haplogroup of any ydna test less then Y-full700 will equal to I-M253?
Connor
There are alternative SNP tests that could refine the haplogroup further, the Big Y isn't the only option, but that is the most refined prediction that a base Y-STR test (such as the Y-67 or Y-111) will provide.
Gary Barach
Ill logout of Mladen account and login into my main accout of 177090, and see what I ordered to get my halpogroup groups.
Deep Clade-I Completed 06/09/2010 360
Connor
You had a Deep Clade test and a Genographic Project conversion after your Y-67 results posted; either could have affected your haplogroup, but neither is currently available today.
Gary Barach
Maybe I should order SNP Pack I1 - Y3549 (P109) SNP Pack $119.00 Add and bypass M-253.
Connor
It looks like the P109 SNP is available as a standalone test for $39.
Or, yes, if you're able to find a SNP pack that covers the relevant branch(es), then that is an option as well.
Gary Barach
Next time ill start with a Y-dna 37 or something like that or a different company, no I'm not happy
Connor
I apologize for the disappointment.
Is there anything else I can do for you today?
Gary Barach
Nope, thanks for your time.
