Hi Taylor and thank you for your mail. Might it be possible to use the kits, have the kits brought
back to the US and shipped to you from the US for processing....would that work?

Hello_
The 23andMe Personal Genome Service that may be purchased through our US online
store is only available for purchase in the United States and must be used in, and
returned for analysis from within, the United States in order for us to comply with
applicable laws. I apologize if this was unclear to you at the time of your purchase.
This is specifically addressed in the 23andMe Terms of Service, which customers must
agree to in placing an order. Section 10 states:
"You may not use the Services outside of the country to which your sample collection
kit was shipped from 23andMe." You can find the full text of our Terms of Service
here: https://www.23andme.com/about/tos/
At this time, I am required to invalidate all sample kits in your recent order as we
cannot provide the US version of the Personal Genome Service outside of the United
States. I have processed a full refund for your kits to the purchasing payment method.
You should see this refund reflected on your statement within 7-10 business days.
We do not currently offer our services in the United Arab Emirates, and cannot support
the use of our service in your region at this time. I apologize for any inconvenience
EFTA_R1_00948973
EFTA02218040
and appreciate your understanding that these policies are in place to ensure we are
complying with applicable laws.
Regards,
Taylor

Hello Taylor. Sultan had been waiting already for the kits so he did not want to wait any longer...I had them
loaded on a Emirates plane and flown to Dubai upon the arrival of the kits...so we cannot return them! I don't
really know what else to do from here. Unless there l . ir a discount you could offer per a kit for the
mistake? ...but the kits are hopefully in use already!
Taylor, Jun 21, 10:06 AM PDT:

to know the order has shipped! Thank you so much for your help...
...in the link you sent me however it was for the dual kit so I assumed that was what the order was originally
EFTA_R1_00948974
EFTA02218041
placed for...I have told Sultan the new order was placed for Health and Ancestry at $199 per kit...Sultan said
he really only wanted ancestry at $99 per kit...I am not sure what to do here... I know Sultan would like these
kits as soon as possible since we have been going back and forth for a few weeks...
I hate to ask, but is it possible for me to place an order for the 30 ancestry kits only at $99 each and when we
receive the 30 Health + Ancestry kits we send them back? Can you issue a call tag?
Taylor, Jun 9, 9:34 AM PDT:
I'm happy to confirm that your new order has shipped, and you can track its status via
USPS
here:
Your order includes 30 Health + Ancestry Service kits for use in the United States. To
clarify, 23andMe currently offers two services: Health + Ancestry, and Ancestry. Our
Health + Ancestry Service includes access to over 75 reports on health, traits, and
ancestry, while our Ancestry Service provides access to our ancestry reports and tools
which include: Ancestry Composition, DNA Relatives, Haplogroups, Neanderthal

Please can you help facilitate the shipping of this order to us? Greatly appreciate your help! Lesley

It appears I cannot use Sultan's credit card he has given me because the country/region of his card is not a
given choice: United Arab Emirates. I am going to ask my employer if I may use his cc details instead....I will
get back to you as soon as I hear from him...
Jun 8, 8:43 AM PDT:
excellent! I am doing it now!
Be in touch shortly
Taylor, Jun 8, 8:41 AM PDT:
Hello
You are free to enter identical personalizations for the kits if you wish. The original
personalization on each sample kit is meant to help customers organize multiple kits,
but will not necessarily correspond with the name of the person who will be using the
kit in question. Until a sample kit has been registered to a 23andMe account, it can
be used by anyone. The registration process will allow the sample kit to be associated
with the name of the person providing the sample.
Please let me know when you have completed your order.

Taylor, Sutlan says last time he merely entered his name for all 30 kits...once he receive the kits he would
then have each individual person register each individual kit...OK to proceed like this?
Jun 8, 8:27 AM PDT:
ok, understood...I will coordinate with Sultan.
Taylor, Jun 8, 8:23 AM PDT:
Hello
We are unable to process orders over the phone, or place orders on a customer's
behalf. If you would like to place an order for 30 kits, you will need to enter a name
for each kit at our store cart. You can use the link below to automatically add 30 kits
to your cart, which will then need to each have a name or personalization entered:
https://store.23andme.com/cart/?kit=30
Please let me know when you have completed your order so that I may monitor its
fulfillment and ensure the order is completed.
Best regards,
Taylor

o morning Taylor. May I please call you to place this order for the 30 kits? I can't seem to figure out how
to purchase the kits on line without plugging in names for each kit. The website does not allow me to move
on from this function...or can you explain to me how to circumvent the addition of names for each kit?
I would really like to get this done today.
Thank you,

Good morning Taylor. Sultan would like me to place a completely new order. He has provided me his CC
details, a picture of the front an back of the card, his security code and address for the code. Might I be able
to place the order directly with you? I do not have the names of each individual who will be using the DNA
kits...
Jun 6, 3:43 PM PDT:
i ay or an thank you so much for getting back to me...Let me alert Sultan and his PA...I am thinking they
are not aware the account has insufficient funds..!
I will get back to you as soon as possible.
Taylor, Jun 6 3:26 PM PDT:
Hello
Thank you for following up on this order. The order was approved for shipment by the
appropriate teams, however PayPal prevented us from completing this order as there
were insufficient funds in the purchasing account. The message our system received
was as follows:
PayPal gateway has rejected request. Transaction rejected, please contact the buyer
(#10606: Buyer cannot pay)
We have been attempting to complete this order for a little over a week in the hopes
that the payment response would update. Unfortunately, we received a new message
earlier today stating that PayPal will not complete the order. As a result, we have
cancelled order If you or the original purchaser would like to
place a new order, please reply directly to this message immediately after placing the
order so I can approve it at our warehouse. Depending on the routing and/or
availability of funds in the original PayPal account, you may wish to instead purchase
using a credit card.
I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. Please let me know if
there's anything I can answer for you at this time.
Best regards,
Taylor

Hello Taylor. I would like to help Sultan Bin Sulayem facilitate his order of 30 (thirty) "23
and Me" kits he placed an order for on May 21, 2017. You specifically emailed Sultan on May 23, 2017, to
find out the use of the 30 kits (you say due to the size of the order you need to find out the intended use for
the kits). He would like to give the kits to his co-workders so they too may enjoy investigating their ancestry.
(Sultan participated with his own DNA and found it fascinating...he wants the people he works with to
participate as well) The kits are to be delivered to:
Jeffrey Epstein
9 East 71st Street
NY, NY 10021
The kits are to be delivered to Jeffrey's address for ease. We have ordered many kits ourselves as
gifts...indeed, Sultan received his personal kit from Jeffrey as a gift.
The kits were paid for by Jim Miller who is Sultan's Personal Assistant. Jim has a supplementary credit card
that is linked to Sultan's account so he can make purchases in Sultan's name.
Please advise what. if any, other information you would like so we may have the kits shipped as soon as
possible. If we need to make an entire new order, please let me know so we may do so.
Thank vou,
Assistant to Jeffrey Epstein

I have purchased one kit 3 months ago and it was iinteresting
to see my results
I put a large purchase of Ancestry test kits in behalf of many co-workers in my company who wanted to do the
same test
Once I receive the kits each individual will register and send his kit to your lab to be analyzed
