We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the UK. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
