I had a terrible experience with this company. They claimed to guarantee results within 2 hours, but it took them much longer to deliver. When I asked for the results and compensation, they tried to g... See more

Zee was fantastic

Zee was fantastic, she talked me through the process and told me when I would receive my certificate, unfortunately I was flying sooner than that so she informed me. Could upgrade my test to ensure I’d get my fit to fly certificate before I take off! Thanks Zee

DONT BOOK WITH THEM

DONT BOOK WITH THEM. £125 for the same day test result and the result came one hour before midnight. When I called to ask if we could have it earlier they hung the phone on us! Worst customer services

Local PCR offer a fantastic service

Local PCR offer a fantastic service. I was flying to Dubai for a work event and had received an inconclusive fit to fly result from another PCR company. I was due to fly Friday midday and by result came back Thursday at 4:30 pm and the testing company I used were unable to assist unless I booked a test the next day which would be too late.

I called Local PCR at 5pm to see if they could fit me in for an Express PCR test, however I was 45 minutes away from their testing centre. I spoke with Dan who went above and beyond and agreed to wait behind for me to arrive past their usual cut off time, so that my results could be sent straight to the lab that evening. True to his word, he was there when I arrived. The whole team were very helpful and understanding and I received my result the same evening via email 3 hours later and I was able to travel to Dubai. Fantastic service, and members of staff that go above and beyond to help.

Professional and quick

I have done many PCR tests travelling for work/family since 2020, and have to say that Zee's skills at PCR testing were one of the best I've experienced. She is patient and kind in doing the test, and friendly to speak to. Highly recommend this Taplow outlet for PCR testing.

I have done the covid test in 122 Nursery Road, Taplow, Maidenhead SL6 0JU, and the person that did it (zheed, sorry if I do not write the name correctly) was really nice, and it all went perfectly. She explain me the possible outcome of my test and I was really happy

Local PCR Slough branch, Test to Travel: Great service and response…

My husband and I used the Slough branch today. We were seen by Zee who was very thorough and professional, taking care that all details were correct.
The whole procedure was very smooth and hassle free, as working through all the latest travel requirements and getting the correct paperwork can be very stressful. Many thanks for all you attention and care today.

Used the Southampton branch

Used the Southampton branch before Christmas. Bit worried it may all be a scam as I couldn't find any reviews for that branch. Booked a PCR with same day results online, confirmation email and also a reminder email the day before. On the day it all went well, with friendly staff. I was told results back by 10pm. A bit of a nervous wait as they didn't come back until 2145 - I was flying the next day, but all good in the end and a comprehensive certificate.

A bit pricy but overall it worked out ok.

My experience with Local PCR was excellent …

My experience with Local PCR that is in slough was excellent. Very sweet and humble lady named ZEE who did the procedure very professionally and provided all kind of information regarding travelling rules. Easy to book and not hard to find and was only in there for about 10 minutes. Great experience as results arrived before the promised deadline.

Positive experience

Despite some concerns after reading some of the negative reviews, we had a positive experience with Local PCR in Wandsworth - the lady taking the swab was very kind, there were no queues or other people and we were seen as soon as we arrived and, most importantly, the test results promised for 11pm the next day arrived one hour early. Would certainly book it again.
